How to Know Your True Ring Size — According to Jewelry Experts

Although our experts can't guarantee weight loss will affect the size of your fingers, if you happen to notice a change in your fingers, don't stress! Once you're sure the weight loss is fairly permanent, "take your ring size again and then take your heirlooms to a fine jeweler and have them resized," Overton said. If you are not yet in possession of the ring and embarking on a weight-loss journey, Lawler-Trustey recommends "choosing a setting that can be easily resized." Remember, you want there to be at least some friction when putting on your ring and taking it off, so when this isn't the case, you should go in for resizing.
