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.

      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.
