A surprising part of my engagement

linzismith

So first, the best news--I got engaged yesterday! That in itself is really exciting, but on top of that, I had an unexpected surprise.

I helped my fiancee pick out the ring long ago. I never really got to try it on becuase the one at the jeweler was too small. So my fiancee bought it knowing we'd have to resize it after he asked me. But yesterday, when he asked me, i couldn't resist just putting it partway on my finger. to my surprise it slid right on!

I've only lost 13 pounds but it was enough to make the ring fit! I've tried to lose weight to fit into a lot of things before--dresses, swimsuits, pants--but never an engagement ring.

Congrats on the ring ans the weight loss! I have to get my college class ring resized due to weight loss myself, but I am waiting until I lose all the weight I want to. Congratulations, again!

That is awesome!!! Super congrats on your engagement too!

It's funny that you posted this because in the past few weeks I've lost about 5 lb and the only place i notice it is in my wedding band and engagement ring. They are sliding all over the place.

Congrats on the engagement and the ring fitting! We looked at rings about 8 months ago and I have always been like a size 9 or a little bigger. He hasn't popped the question yet, but I stopped into the store a couple months ago to be resized and I am now an 8!

It's a good feeling isn't it?
