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

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
