  • A second mini-goal...smaller fingers!

    My main mini-goal is to reach 160 pounds, which I am slowly approaching. My second mini-goal is to be able to wear my wedding/engagement rings again...I haven't been able to wear them for about a year now because of the weight gained after we got married. I decided I should lose weight rather than re-size them.

    I tried them on yesterday, and they fit nicely, but the air was cool and dry. Throughout the day or at work, it's a bit humid and my finger swells a bit. So I am thinking when I get to the 150s I should be able to comfortably wear my rings again!!

    I'm almost to the point where I'll have to go get my rings resized smaller! Sometimes my fingers swell and then the ring fits just right. Tonight, I could actually look through my ring and my finger! LOL

      Mine's a little loose on me, when it swells I know I'm retaining water

        A warning, ladies!!
        Don't let your rings get too loose..!!
        I was having a quick wee before our store opened one day and *CLINK* my thumb ring fell off into the toilet!!! Of course I fished it out (and Ajaxed it and my hands!) and later on my other ring wandered out to the end of my finger. After work I went straight to the jewelry store to have them resized.
        It was fun being able to show everyone how loose my rings had become but I would have been pretty darn sad to lose them.

          Heed Moochie's advice!!


          I didnt and nearly lost my antique £1,000+ ring!!

          Luckily when we returned from a half hour shopping trip (after the shock of realising I wasnt wearing it any more) there it was on the pavement (sidewalk) outside our rear entrance!!

          Talk about lucky!!

          As you may imagine my next shopping trip was to take my rings to the jewellers!! Look how much smaller it was made to fit my slimmer finger!!

          Even though it is very loose and swings round, I still wear the larger one pictured, with my resized wedding ring and engagement ring as 'keepers', to remind me how far I have come
          Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

              Mine are getting very loose, and some I'd had to stop wearing are being reinstated. Nice feeling, isn't it? My aim is to for Mum's wedding ring to fit me - it used to about 12 years ago but until recently would not go on ANY finger. I can now get it on my little finger, and it's loose. It is hand made and features roses and wheat sheaves - it is very unusual.

                I can't wait to have smaller fingers too. I don't want to have my rings resized though, I want to get a real engagement ring instead of the placeholder I have now!

                  you can also buy a cheap ring guard when they get too big until you finish loosing weight

                  congrats on the tiny fingers btw
