    I've lost close to 60lbs now (my ticker was accurate last Sunday, but I've dropped more sine then) and my wedding rings will fly off if I flap my hands to shake water off them after washing and before drying. They were so tight that I could hardly get them off, and could not get them off if I was puffy from too much sodium.

    I am hoping I really don't lose that much in my fingers. I got my Mom's rings last year and had to have them sized up from a 6 to a 9 at a costly chuck of change. They are loose and twirl on my fingers but I have large knuckles and fat fingers so the hope I won't have to get them sized smaller.

    I haven't been able to get mine off since I gained wt with my last pregnancy, they have been stuck on for 5 years. But now that I've lost a little they feel looser. The day I can take them off will be a huge NSV I think . Instead of having them resized I plan to have my diamonds reset into a new set when I reach my goal

    I have naturally very fat fingers, but losing almost 70 pounds has caused my wedding and engagement rings to not fit anymore. If I shake my hand they actually fly off. Size 7 1/2 to...I don't know, I have to have them resized. Maybe a 6 1/2.

    Well, my engagement ring was *slightly* big anyway, but after about 15-20lb loss, it was really falling off my finger, so now I have to wear it on my middle finger instead. My wrist size has changed more ;)

    I'm about 30 lbs lighter than when I got married and my rings won't stay on. I can put them on my middle finger but I need to get them sized by at least 3/4 - 1 full ring size.

    I've lost 65 pounds so far and I've had to take my wedding ring in to have it resized down one size. The last 10 pounds I've recently lost and I can feel my ring is a little lose again.

    I got my wedding ring at a size 9 1/2. In July of 2011, I got it resized to a size 7 1/2. That was after a 60 pound weight loss. I recently got it resized to a size 6 1/4, after 168 pounds lost.

    A whole ring size with 30 lbs. I have fat-prone fingers though. We call them irish sausages in my family.

    I have lost 30 pounds so far and my wedding ring falls off my finger. Going to have it re-sized next week before I lose it. I think it will probably go down a half size or a whole size.

    I was at a tighter 4.5 that took a lot of wiggling to get off...now I'm at a looser 4.5 that comes off with minimal effort (yet they don't fall off). I lost 30 pounds. However, it seems like my fingers almost conformed to the rings because you can still see a shape difference in my fingers when I take them off (skinnier at the bottom).

    My ring is a 4.5 (IIRC)
    I will be taking it back in to be resized, it's too big and it spins all over the place. I put tape around it on a recent vacation because I was afraid of it falling off and getting lost in transit.

    I've lost 62 lbs so far.
