Lost - 105 pounds... and 1 wedding ring. :-(



Recommended Posts

I had that my ring which is why I took it off to wash my hands. It hurt me to rub my hands together with the plastic thing on my ring.

I can see that happening. I've been wearing it for all of two hours but it's already irritating me. It's NOT comfortable. :-/

That sounds like the best plan for today! Tomorrow I'll take it to the jeweler to be fixed.

I haven't even had surgery yet but have lost 40lbs and my ring doesn't fit anymore. :( I was recently engaged in October and I want to wait and just have it resized once at the end of my journey. But I am so sad that I didn't get to wear it long.

Cheer up. It's a goal or reward you can look forward to! And it comes faster than think! :-)

I have lots st 170 pounds. To say my ring is too big would be a HUGE understatement! I went to a jewelry store (Goodman 's) I live in Minnesota. They fitted a metal sizer in my ring. It cost $15.00 and is working great. I don't want to have my be sized until this summer, and this way I can still wear it.

SO glad you found it!! It would just about kill me to lose mine. You were exactly correct when you said it is what it MEANS that counts. Good luck !

Mine falls off and has for months now. I don't dare wear it anywhere. I wanted to wait until I reached goal to actually get it sized from the jeweler. It's cool that it is so big....but I miss it. I will tell you what i did do....... I found a couple of really cute rings on ebay, not real of course, but nice ones that were very affordable to hold me over until I get mine fixed. I got a couple of different ones and wear them occasionally so my finger doesn't feel so naked.

I had mine fixed last Wednesday. The jeweler did it for free and he polished it. It hasn't shined so bright in years! :-)

Good for you on finding it. Husband bought me a beautiful new ring for Christmas with chocolate diamonds. I had it sized then but now it's too big again so I am going to wait til I get to my goal before I get it sized again.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
