Getting smaller in other places.... - ThinnerTimes

LOL...I was thinking about my ring and neckalce sizes....what were you thinking of???

I was just wondering how much of a difference you found in your rings and how much larger your necklaces are now that you have lost the weight? I have some beautiful jewelry my husband has bought me over the years but can't wear because either my fingers are too fat (size 11 on left ring finger) and my 18 inch necklace feels like it's choking me.

I have 2 toe rings that I have worn for years. Last weekend I lost them in my friends pool. The filter ate them.

Well I went from a size 11.5-12 on my wedding ring finger and now have a 8.5 on and it's a little loose, gonna resize again before we move to Alaska in December. My necklaces I don't wear often but they feel more comfortable cause I actually have a neck. I did notice too that my charm bracelet it way too big it will actually slide right off of my wrist so I need to have it sized to fit...just remove about 5 links or so. It's a good feeling! I may actually be able to buy a bracelet in the store instead of having it supersized for me!

My ring size went from and 8.5 to a 6.5 and necklaces that used to choke me before are now quite wearable.

LOL ..... This is true. It is funny how the little things like this will be normal for us. I cannot wait!

My ring size went from 10 to 6.5. It was very poetic the day my wedding ring fell off - my marriage was on the way out anyway. Neck is smaller too, all my shoes became too big and my heart rate monitor barely stays on now.

All good things, but costs money to replace it all!!

hey everyone, i am very excited for my upcoming surgery but i will heartbroken when my rings dont fit and my shoes become clown shoes on me. Hopefully i can just stuff the toes, i would hate to give up my collection of kanga's. Already just losing the weight i wanted to get off before my surgery my senior ring was a 10 and i now wear it on my middle finger

but i will be happy when i can find my neck, when i was born my parents always tell me that they called me no neck Burnett ( my last name). I thought it was cruel but I will have the last laugh.

I had all these ideas of what would be hard or sad or whatever...I thought I'd miss so many things - but you may be surprised at how GOOD it feels to lose things you thought were important. I remember taking all my nice clothes to the consignment shop, I love those things, and I was like - "Here - may I never see them again!!!" Rings - I didn't care. SHoes - new ones are SOOO much more comfotable - I can wear 3 inch heels all day now because I'm not carring the extra 145 pounds!

I know it seems as if it will be hard, but you may find it extremely cathartic!
