They have arrived.

I almost fooled myself into thinking they wouldn't happen to me.

I woke up on my 2mo "anniversary" and there they were.

Bingo wings.... :-(

I have lost 161# and mine are pretty big. My kids love them. They are all the time squeezing my arms. One asked me the other day:

Kid- are those your wings?

Me- yep

Kid- can you fly with them?

Me- nope, I prefer to use a broom.

Kid- ahhhhh *screams for other kids* mama's an alien!!!

Lol...kids????

Lol! I'm sorry, I know you must be upset but your post cracked me up cuz I can totally relate! Damn wings! I agree with John, lift some weights. I know that mine would be a heck of a lot worse had I not been using weights while I watch tv in the evenings for the past few months. Just get you some 2lbs ones and do little exercises while you watch tv. That has helped me. :)

I was worried I was the only one with the bat wings. I think im going to take someone advice and start lifting little weight while watching tv, it cant hurt and every little bit helps right??

LoL!! I have called them bingo wings for as long as I can remember. I have started some toning.

Bingo wings suck. But I'll take them over being obese any day. :-D

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
