My fingers are shrinking?
 

Silly question, but this is the first time I've ever experienced this....

I think my fingers are shrinking. I have two rings that I wear everyday. They are literally barely hanging on. I have to really watch it b/c they can slide off by me pointing my fingers down.

Who has experienced this? And what do I do? Should I wait to get them resized until I've reached goal?

It's pretty exciting to think even my fingers are shrinking! :)

Oh yes-it happens! I was able to finally wear my grandmother's ring because my fingers shrunk so much! (My other ring literally flew off my finger!) I have fairly large knuckles, so my rings can only be sized to them, but I'd wait until you've started maintaining for awhile-I wore mine on a specially bought chain around my neck.

Yup! My ring size went from a 7 to a 4.5 :)

My wedding rings were always a little loose, my ring size was a 4.5 at the time of purchase. Now, they slide on and off on their own if I hold my fingers down sometimes too, especially in cold weather.

I haven't had that problem yet.. but my mom has before she usually waits until they are practically falling off to get them resized and then does it again if she needs it because she was rather scared of losing her wedding ring :p

haha :D yah it happens

grats on your loss! :D

Yes, I can actually wear my wedding ring again. It's a size 3 and my engagement ring are a 4. I'll defiantely need to have them resized when I reach my goal. The engagement ring is almost too big already but it was big from the start (I don't think it was sized correctly).

got the same thing going on here!! Its a good thing though!

Oh yes, that definitely happens.

Wait until you start dropping shoe sizes.

Oh yes, that happened to me. I started at 192 and my engagement ring was a 5.5. I am now 167 and I had it made to a 5 and now the 5 is a tad loose (but is fine). I think I had it re-sized to a 5 at 175...

Shoe sizes change too? I just bought two pairs of new shoes that were a half size smaller than before, I thought it was just coincidence.

I remember I got my class ring during my sophomore year of high school (around my highest weight ever--280s or so) and it was fairly loose on me by the end of my junior year--I wasn't on a plan, but I'd started eating vegetarian, so I lost a few pounds here and there, heh.

I REALLY hope my feet shrink! I've always been a little self-conscious about having big feet and how it's semi-related to being overweight... Like a thin woman who has big feet just has big feet, but a fat woman with big feet has fat feet. :p

Me too! I've gone from a 10 to an 8.5... Don't feel like my fingers are quite so fat now ;) :carrot: Even my mum noticed!

I went down a ring size and half a shoe size.

Oh, I thought I was crazy (well.. maybe I am) but I went from a size 10 shoe to a size 7 shoe since highschool... I didn't think they'd shrink that much tho.. (and there's been a lot of up'n'downing..
Maybe I am crazy.. :P

My boyfriend bought me a ring 2 christmases ago-- a size 8.5 (already gigantic-- that finger is size 7) and I've been wearing it on my middle finger-- I tend to keep my hands in loose fists though (irish dancer arm training) so i don't have much risk of losing it!
