I kept buying inexpensive bands which I had to replace nearly every month. I have now had my rings resized by the jewellers and they fit great. Glad to have them back in my finger.

Anybody else remember when you were going steady, you wrapped angora yarn about his class ring so you could wear it? OMG I feel so old remembering that!

As a child when ring issues came up we just wrapped tape around it. Any kind...[emoji304]
Sticky tape fixes everything.

I can understand. I wear mine on my middle finger. I feel naked and anxious without it.
Me too, not having wedding rings on is like forgetting my glasses and then walk g around squinting all day. It just doesn't feel right.

Need a bit of advice re: my engagement and wedding rings.

I'm now thinner than when I married my lovely hubs twenty years ago and my rings are getting too loose. They're bugging me coz they swivel all the time and I'm scared of losing them.

I'm loathe to take them off but there's no point getting them adjusted yet - I don't even know if they can be adjusted.

Did this happen to anyone else? What did you do?

of course you can have it adjusted my friend.

you can go to the store where you bought the ring and inquire about it.

Just had mine adjusted.

I had mine resized about 9 months ago when I got so fat; now they're already loose, so I know I'll have to resize them again when I meet my goal weight because I want to wear them but I don't want them falling off.

And if you are truly cheap like me you go to Wal-Mart and buy a little package of plastic ring sizers which cost about $2,98 in the jewelry department, that's what I did, got one on my left hand holding my rings in place. Since they're plastic you can wash your hands with them in place and do anything you usually use your hands for.

They can put on a ring guard - not expensive

I stopped wearing mine for about 6 months and then finally had them resized when I was close to goal. Looks perfect.

I’ve had mine resized three times. Went from a 15 to a 12.5 to a 11 to a 10. I’ll probably have to get it resized one more time. Go ahead and get it resized. I almost lost mine once... far worse feeling than going a few days without it.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
