Even my feet were fat?????



Recommended Posts

I have gone in shoes sizes from an 8 wide to a 7-71 /2 regular. and I had to have my wedding rig resized from a 9 to a 5 1/2. I didn't realize just how fat my hands were 70 lbs ago!!

After a loss of 65 pounds, my hands are so much thinner I can't even wear my wedding ring anymore. The last time I had it on, I was talking with my hands. I threw open my arms for emphasis and my ring went flying across the room. I had to stop wearing it for now. I will get it sized when I'm finished losing. No sense in paying for that twice!!! But my husband is heartbroken. He's already a little unsure about men noticing me, so my not wearing a ring to "ward off the hounds" (LOL) has him a little uneasy.

About two weeks ago, I had to stop wearing my engagement ring and anniversary band...my wedding band is soon to follow. I'm not sure what to do about it though...we had them made for us when we lived in the UK and they have a design inlaid...not so easy to resize:thumbdown:

It's amazing how everything shrinks. I used to wear a size 11 and now I wear a 9.5. My ring size was 11 and now it's 7.5. My wrist is so small now too, I keep having to move my watch band a notch tighter and taking out links.

Aubrie, I'm going through this also. My husband has also lost some weight and his ring fits loose.

We bought some $3 stainless steel bands on eBay and are wearing those temporarily.

...

I've also lost half a shoe size.

      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.
