Now I'm a bit less of a fatty my wedding ring feels like it's going to fall off.

Anyone got any experience of ring resizing?

It's a yellow gold band with no stones.

I think @Myranda used to be a jeweler?

    Hello!

    What sort of band? Plain wedding band? (as in, is it patterned or textured?)

    If it's a plain band it can be done quite easily.
    I went down 3 sizes after losing weight, and the jewellers (I brought it back to where I bought it from) didn't charge for it.

    Even if it's patterned they can often blend in the pattern.

  • Serious answer: it's fairly easy & common. (MrsLostSon used to work in a jewellers). 
    The ring is cut open, a sliver removed and then soldered back together. It's then polished to remove any sign of the work.
    Yours sounds like a good candidate if it's just a plain band. Id still only give the work to a jeweller you trust. 

    I had the same issue, but as my wedding band was titanium I had to replace it.  :/

    Not to sound all know-it-all but unless you're going down a lot of sizes with an average wedding band there's no need to cut at all.

    Heat it to anneal it, stretch it or squish it in a ring re-sizer... if you're awesome even the flat profile rings the manufacturer or ring sizers say can't be done can also be done... if you're really super awesome you can use it to do stone set rings (as long as you're only doing a half size or a single size in the lower size range)

    Then yup... 5-10 minutes and it will be smaller and shiny again... best sort of job because it requires virtually no effort and gets £10 - £20 ... 

    *price may vary depending on jeweller and how wealthy you look on entering ;-)

    You can get little plastic rings to wear under the gold ring if you don't want to make a permanent change. 

    MrsTheWeary has had rings resized and they've looked fine. If it's not a symmetrical ring it's possible you could lose the hallmark ( ie if it's in the bit that needs cutting) is the only worry.

    isn't it cheaper to buy a new gold band?

    You should see what they sell in shops in Spain. Totally beyond me how anyone can get some of that up themselves. Amd who the fuck buys a "realistic horse dong" anyway.
