Thinking Ahead To Reaching My Goal...



Recommended Posts

SO, when I reach my goal weight I'd like to get a tattoo to commemorate the accomplishment and to act as a reminder to never return to my old weight/ways. What would you get tattoo'ed and where for such a reason? I'm looking for ideas! I would not want anything big or hugely noticeable. This will be my first tattoo!

I don't have an answer for you just maybe a suggestion. I got a tattoo (my first and only) when I was 37 at a major transition time from me. I had been thinking about getting one for years. I have a trinity knot (looks like the charmed logo from the tv show) It actually is suppose to stand for the evolution of a woman.... Its small and on my shoulder. It always reminds me of my transformation in that time of my life. I am also of Irish/Scottish decent so it really fit for me. Maybe a nice little bird to show you are about to take off with a new life. I hope you find the perfect thing and that you hit your goal soon! :)

I have always thought cherry blossoms and koi fish were beautiful because of what they symbolize.

A set of scales, like the scales of justice, or the horoscope symbol, to remind you to keep everything in balance.

One girl in another post got the coolest tattoo. She got onederland tattooed on herself after she got below 200. I thought that was the neatest thing and one of the coolest ways to commemorate something so important.

Personally I have been waiting until I lost weight to get about 3 tattoos. The are already designed and waiting for me. I can't wait until I get below my 200 mark and can get them done!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
