I can't even remember the last time I was able to get my wedding ring off.  I mean it has probably been 12 years or more and has been a problem at times due to swelling.  However, today I got it off!!!!!  I'm so used to wearing it 24/7 and probably still will, but it's great to know that I can get it off if I have to!  It's getting better everyday!

Lib,
Careful careful!! I've read more than a handfull of posts about folks losing their wedding rings from their now skinny fingers!! My rings fell off everytime I washed my hands!
I ordered a 2 sizes smaller $30 "Diamonique" anniversary ring from HSN and I slid it in front my wedding rings. It's snug enough to keep them on. It'll do for now, I'll do a resize when I'm at goal!!

Congrats on your great NSV!!

Congrats!!! I'm 18 months post op and down 146 pounds.  Needless to say my rings stay in my purse or at home.  I was at walmart looking through shirts and they both flew off!  Try those temporary ring adjusters you can get them on amazon.  They make do until you are ready to have them sized down.

Again.. Congrats!!

Good tips y'all! Thanks.  It's not falling off yet........I still had to twist it off, but I'm sure that it will get to that point.  I will look for those temporary adjusters on amazon.

I got my ring adjuster for free from my jewlers.  They even attached it for me.
