My sleeve just cost me more than I ever expected



Recommended Posts

I woke up in the middle of the night in horror that my wedding ring was not on my hand.

I NEVER remove it. So I'm about at goal at 141 and have lost 2 pounds in the past two weeks and it must have come off my fingers too.

I have retraced my weekend steps and left my number with every place I went. I posted on CL and lets just say I'm not holding my breath.

And I'm not stressing over it either. My wonderful husband said .. Well it's been 16 years and we should Renew our vows anyway.

What a man. It means a lot to me because I had it made for me from family jewelry. But I am realistic about getting something like that back.

And just knowing that it slipped off my skinny finger kind of makes me giggle.

Very expensive lesson learned.

I only got sleeved on 12/17/14 and my wedding band had to actually come off last night. I'm down 49 lbs.. I was so fearful of losing it since it was so big, I put on a plain diamond band until either a. I outgrow that. or b. get down to goal and get a new band (our bands are titanium and can't be resized)!!

good luck and I hope it makes its way back to you!

DId you look all in and under your bed? Maybe it slipped off while you were asleep. At any rate, congratulations on your weight loss and on your wonderful husband!

Ring guards? ::google google:: Hey, ring guards exist!

I had never heard of this product, but just searched Amazon on your recommendation. I am a few days from needing to remove my wedding ring or risk losing it (@@Zane's Mom, soooo sorry for your lost ring!), and now I don't have to. Hooray! Thanks for the tip, @@Cupcake!

I'm so sorry you lost your ring.

I haven't worn my set for over a decade. Fingers too fat. Now that it fits, I want to wear it because it's the only real jewelry I own, but I filed for divorce. Gotta laugh at the irony. I hope you find it. Check coat pockets and the seats and floor of your car. Mittens, etc.

Ha, you are not the only one. Well, I have not had my surgery yet and we are already separated, but I feel the same way about my rings. I may decide to have them made into something else eventually.
