    . Here is a picture my ring. It used to not even fit but now it's loose. You can sorta see the gap between my ring and finger. It's slight but it's definitely there!

    My ring is so loose, I usually have to keep it on a different finger. It used to be rather tight before.

    Lol! That is so funny! I might have to do that too but

    I had to have mine sized down by 5 sizes.
    Wow! Now that is success!

    I don't wear my rings very often. The last time I put them on I had to shift all of them by one finger because they were each too big for where I had been previously wearing them. That was almost two months ago and I haven't worn them since. I wonder how, or even if, they will fit once I reach my goal.

    I bought a ring to put in front of my wedding ring to avoid it slipping off. I call it my ringstopper

    Mine had fallen right off my finger recently. I had washed my hands and was shaking them dry and it flew across the room. It landed just shy of rolling under a huge filing cabinet. Since then I have been wearing it on my middle finger. It was hand made by my husband's grandfather who passed away right before our wedding, so I do not want to have it resized until I am closer to goal. I am not sure if it would survive more than once...

    I recently had to get my engagement ring sized down by 1 size after a 60lb loss. (I was sizing my wedding band since I just got married in May.) Now I wish I went at least 1.5 sizes since both are now loose! (total of 65lb loss with at least another 15lbs to go). #weightlossproblems lol

    This wedding band has been on since 2-8-69, at my highest weight 376 I couldn't get it off without soapy water. Now it is so easy to slip on and off I do it just to remind me I have lost 140#.

    OMG so very WOW! Woo hoo for you! That's great!

    Omg! It flew across the room? Amazing! That is sooo soooo great! Yeah I don't blame you for waiting to have it resized!

    My husband just bought a new wedding ring. He had a tungsten ring, but it kept falling off and you can't resize tungsten. So he bought a silicone ring which he is LOVING it so far!

    Yep. I wear my mothers 25th anniversary ring on my thumb and cannot even wear my wedding or engagement ring because they fly right off. Once they fell off into the river... Thankfully, my husband fished them out for me.

    What is Tungsten may I ask? And silicone? Never heard of these type of rings! That is so great they kept falling off!

    YES! That is what is keeping me going that they are spinning but the weight isn't coming off any time soon! NOT for another two months I've got! Good for you!

    Oh my! I am so glad you were able to fish your wedding rings out of the river! That is so so great they just fly off you!

    I don't have pics of mine, but what has saved me is a RING GUARD. You get it at a jeweler's. It's a little metal band they apply inside of the back side of your ring to make it smaller. It's a little flexible and can be adjusted. I've lost about 100 pounds since mine were applied and they've allowed me to keep wearing my rings the entire time. I'm now ready to get them resized for good. I think I'll go down 3-4 full sizes.

    Interesting my mother in law wears ring guards too. I think they're neat! Nice concept! Congrats on your weight loss too! I've seen your success story and complimented as well as commented on your weight loss efforts. Good job!

    Yup. Never even thought I had fat fingers but over time even my digits have shrunk. It isn't super loose but it slides around a bit. Still smaller than the knuckle so won't come off.

    I do, but can't take a pic atm...my grandmothers wedding ring was TOO tight on my ring finger last year at this time, now it's too loose on ALL my fingers, INCLUDING my thumb!!! It's crazy!!!
