My wedding band keeps turning past my knuckle now

I track weekly averages rather than daily weights, and this week the page showed 0.6 pounds lower than my prior four-week average. That was pleasant, but the more surprising change happened at the sink.

My wedding band, a size 8 that used to sit snugly, now spins when my hands are wet and slips over my knuckle with almost no resistance. I nearly lost it down the drain, which made me laugh and then feel a little sentimental.

I am not ready to resize it yet because I still have some pounds I would like to release, but I did move it to my right hand for safekeeping. It is odd how progress can show up somewhere I was not measuring.

Has anyone else had jewelry loosen before the weekly numbers told a dramatic story?

I’d check it at the same time daily before resizing. My band got loose around 15 lb down, but morning vs. evening was a half-size difference, and high-sodium days made it snug again.

I kept a cheap ring sizer in the bathroom and logged it next to my weekly weight average; after four weeks of stable readings, I finally went down a quarter size. Are you seeing the spin mostly after workouts/shower, or all day?

That distinction usually tells you whether it’s fat loss, hydration, or both.
