I have 3 tattoos and I was wondering what people's experiences were with weight loss and tat's. Do they look deformed because of the weight loss. I love my tat's and would hate to have them looking a hot mess. but if i have to choose between weight loss and tat's, sorry tat's you lose!

I am going to be banded soon and also have many tattoos...most in places that shouldn't stretch too much (I hope) but even if they do stretch there are always tattoo artists out there who are awesome and can find a way to fix it up even if it means changing it or going over it.

None of my tats have been affected, but I have them in spots where the skin doesn't stretch too much. Only one may be affected by a tummy tuck, but i don't really care if it is. I can easily change it

I have a butterfly above my ankle so I doubt it will change much. Although it is a barometer for shaving my legs when it turns into a moth.

A moth! :rofl:

I have 7 tattoos and they all but 1 look way better on my skinny body. They seem bigger now. Lol! But the four leaf clover near my heart on top of breast is not in good shape. Lol!

I used to have a tattoo right on my hip that I got when I was skinny a few years ago.

70 pounds later it didn't look so bad but I worried what it would look like when I got skinny again.

I lost my weight and the tattoo just went right back to the way it used to be. I was so excited, but then I had a tummy tuck and it was cut off.

I guess it depends where these tats are to whether they will look terrible or not. All my other 7 tats I was never worried about because they arent in areas where my skin has changed much.

If any of them look bad you can get them lasered off. I had a small tattoo above my left breast and from many years of tanning it got very faded. I even had the ink redone once. I decided I didn't like it anymore and had laser removal. Now you can't even tell where it was. I had the tat for about 20 years. (the cost for laser removal is expensive, they charge per square inch)

I'm getting banded in June, and also worried about a fairy high on my backside. Hope she's not too droopy!

This is a funny post, and the moth comment was hilarious.
