Today I tried on a ring that I was given when I was about 12. I have no idea what size it is, I just know that once I was in high school it no longer fit. It's a gold claddagh and I have always loved it. IT FIT! On both hands I can get it on my ring finger and it's not even tight. I never in a million years thought I could wear it again. This is amazing. I'm so glad I had my sleeve!!!! ????

Congrats! My very first NSV was that my rings fit. Funny I lost finger fat before anywhere else. Too bad they are all too big for me now.

the first summer we were dating, I bought my boyfriend and I these gorgeous handmade silver claddagh rings. His was a size smaller than mine, and I always felt a little ashamed of that, but man, did I love those rings. We're going on four years now and not only do neither of the rings fit me (not even close) but his ring doesn't fit him because he's been eating healthier and losing weight along with me. It's a bittersweet nsv, but now we have a reason to get new ones. :P Thanks for sharing!

My rings are moving a finger. I used to wear most of my rings on my middle fingers but they got too small. They are back on my middle fingers. (that way no one will think they mean I am attached!)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
