my rings fit!

I bought a whole bunch of rings three years ago. I haven't been able to wear them for almost two years. I tried them on today, and some of them were actually too loose. I can't believe that my fingers and even my feet are smaller - it's such a little thing, but, wow.

It's such a small thing, but it made me smile and feel hope that I can lose 60 pounds (I've given myself a year to do it).

The little stuff really helps!

Do you have any little stories like that?

    I have to disagree with you ... that's not a small thing at all. That's huge! Congratulations!

    I bought myself 2 rings last year and hope to be wearing them this year. I purposely bought them in a smaller size as an incentive.

    My ring size is getting smaller to! My part time job is at a jewelry store and I try on rings all the time. Yesterday I tried on rings a half a size smaller and it fit! Whoohoo. Go us!

    I made a post like this a bit ago. It is not a small thing, it's big!! I finally had to break down and get my wedding set sized down because I was getting nervous they were going to fall off. I went from 8.5 to 7. It is a great feeling. Congratulations!!!

    My friend should read this post! Her ring has been so tight on her and her hubby always bugged her about not wearing it, so one day just to shut him up she squeezed it onto her finger. Well it got stuck...like her finger turned red and swelled up stuck and would NOT come off even trying dish soap, peanut butter, you name it. They had to go to the fire station to have them cut it off!!!

    That's wonderful! I remember losing weight in the past and having a ring fall off and I didn't notice it until I was out riding my bike. I was in a panick because it was a ring from my deceased mother. I raced home as quickly as I could and retraced my steps by starting at the skin where I had washed my hands prior to leaving on my bike ride (the chain had come off) and lo and behold there was my ring in a dish in the sink!

    Keep up the good work!

    That is a HUGE victory! Love this stuff more than a loss on the scale because this stuff is always a surprise :)
