I'm so GLAD I nearly lost my wedding ring!

Yep, ya'll! I was walking down the hallway at work and felt something creeping down my finger, when I looked down my wedding set was past my knuckle about to fall to the floor! I was so thrilled I stood there for a moment just moving it up and down on my finger smiling.

Don't you get it? I may not have lost a dress size, and the scale has not moved in leaps and bounds, but my wedding set that I was almost to the point of not wearing because it was cutting off my circulation is now to big for me! I'm so encouraged cuz if I keep going all these little baby steps will add up to a major accomplishment. So, yes, I'm so glad that I NEARLY lost my wedding ring. If I had lost it, OMG! You probably would have been able to hear my husband who isn't even a MFP member! LOL

Have a good day, everyone. And remember, an accomplishment no matter how minute, is still that... an accomplishment and meant to be celebrated. Moscato, here I come! (J/K)

    I lost my engagement ring due to weight loss way back when.
    It's a cool thing for them to not be so tight anymore, but be careful - I hope it's insured!

    It is a big deal! I only lost 39 lbs and my wedding ring got really loose! Not loose enough to fall off, it is a 4.5, but very floppy!
    It is a wonderful feeling. Glad you caught it before it escaped!!! ;):drinker: (water)

    I did loose mine. It flew off my hand never to be seen again.

    Quick fix just so you won't loose them.. tape (not a great idea but it works), or walmart and clares/icing sell little plastic things that fit on the band to take up some of the extra space. :) Congrats.

    I had to get my ring resized due to weight loss. Good thing you didn't lose it but it's nice to see results somewhere!!!! Keep up the work!
  • I wear a 4.5 and it's falling off. I actually have had it off for 3 days for fear of losing it. It's also really cold here, so that probably doesn't help matters.

    Good Job!!!! And keep up the good work!

    You're so lucky! Mine hasn't fit (and still doesn't) since I was pregnant with my 2yo! LOL

  • That is so awesome!!! Im so glad that you didn't lose it though, but what a great feeling to know that you could have. You have been doing an amazing job, you should be proud!!
