    great job! i had to have my ring resized too. i really did not want too, b/c it was a nice reminder of how far i've come. but i would've lost it. it was also a nice reminder that now i don't ever plan on being that size again!

    I wouldn't be comfortable not wearing it. It's how my wife transmits her commands directly to my brain, and if I take it off I tend to walk in a circle muttering

    Thanks for the giggle!

    I've used medical tape in a pinch until I could buy a sized.

    You can get spacers at Walmart cheaply if you don't have time to get your ring resized or don't have a way to do it for free. :happy: And the pants? You can get cheap pants! Hit up the outlet mall.

    Buy yourself a new pair of jeans! Your wife will appreciate seeing that nice butt, clothed beautifully, and you'll feel even greater when looking in the mirror. Nice work!!!

    Last night I stood by the bed, shook my hand and my wedding band fell off. Then I loosened my belt and my pants fell off...


    My wife's reaction... "Wow! Hey! Wait a minute!!!"


    I actually really enjoy the feeling of the ring being loose, but I know I'll need to get it re-sized soon or I'll lose it. It's something to remind me that I am doing the right thing every time I wobble my hand. The pants thing is a problem because I'm planning to lose more weight, and don't want to buy any "middle weight" pants.
    Congratulations on your success so far! Keep the ring safe! and you *need* to at least buy 1 - 2 pairs of middle pants... thriftstore? or super cheap ones? keep up the good work!

    Shrinking is fun, eh? Find someone with a sewing machine, and get them to take your pants in an inch or two. You can do that a few times before you'll have to invest in some new ones.
    That's a really good idea!

    Congratulations! I am glad the ring fell of at home instead of outside somewhere where you could not find it.

    An elastic band works just as well for the wedding ring.

    Ha! Excellent! Put your ring on a chain and wear it around your neck until you reach your goal weight. Lots of tradies do that here as they can't have anything on their hands for safety reasons.

    Congrats! I'm looking forward to the exact opposite NSV. I was at my goal weight when we got married and I haven't worn my engagement or wedding ring for almost 25 years! I had to take them off when pregnant with my first child because I'd gained so much weight. o.O So I can't wait for the day I can put them both back on again! :)

    Just switch the ring to a bigger finger. If you are right handed, the fingers will be larger on that hand. I am currently wearing my engagement ring on my right middle finger. Will resize when I hit goal.

    My ring finger has apparently not gotten any skinnier!
    Neither has mine but then my hands were never fat.
