This is going to sound really silly, but I have "working hands" and stubby sausage fingers. Even after my mom got big, she maintained a delicacy to her hands and other features that I was always envious of. Now I'm wondering what my own hands might look like after I drop some weight.

Did you folks notice a big difference in your hands? Anyone have pictures?

I always had long slender fingers...but I was wearing a size 8-9 when I had this WLS..now I am a 5.5...Smaller then I was before I got married 36 years ago......I was a size 7 then.....

None of my rings fit me anymore...None of my wedding rings fit me anymore.....I am perplexed!

I can see a difference in my hands - I'm just over 4 weeks out.

My rings fit better than they did before. My husband commented that my fingers don't look like little sausages (in a nice way). :-)

The same way he told me my a$$ is getting smaller!!!! LOL. We've been together for 18 years - He is not romantic, he doesn't whisper sweet nothings in my ear, he's basically a big child and makes me laugh.

Mine have shrunk. My fingers look longer and thinner, but I don't have any pics. Someone said to me the other day, "Those don't even look like your hands anymore." The only problem is that they look much older.

I am 3 weeks out and I can already tell a difference in my rings, so I think they will shrink.

My hands are thinner. Was a size 8 ring, about 6.5 now. My feet went from tight 10 to 8.5 or 9.

My wedding ring finger went from a 7 to a 5.5 in 6 weeks. I can tell my hands and feet are slimmer (who the hell knew I had fat feet too?). Interestingly, my hands do not look older but I think I know why. When I decided to have this surgery my attitude toward myself changed. Before, I put hand cream on because they ached in dry climates and in the winter. I started paying a lot more attention to myself and even more after the weight started coming off. I do take daily fish oil now, but I also started going to Lush to get very nice moisturizers and bath bombs. I can tell a difference in my skin everywhere. And bonus! Most of the items are solids and not creams, which means they can come on the plane with me!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
