weight loss tattoos



Recommended Posts

I am thinking of a target or crosshairs over my port just to give my LB nurse a laugh. I figure when I get the excess skin removed, it would get taken off as well.

Ok kinda funny (in a sad way lol)...

I have had problems with HUGE hernias over the last decade. I had one fixed that was bigger than a grapefruit (not exaggerating, either). The surgeon said it was the biggest he's ever seen. I had one become strangulated this past August and I have to have more big ones fixed at the same time as a Tummy Tuck this spring/summer.

Because of all this, and now losing over 180 pounds, my tummy is just gross. SO much extra skin! In fact, my belly button isn't even where it belongs anymore. It's actually down and to the left lol.

After the tummy tuck and skin removal, I won't have any belly button at all anymore. So, I am planning on getting a tattoo where my belly button should be once everything is done!!

:D

I am definitely getting a new tatt when I hit my goal.

3 years ago I had renal cancer resulting in having my kidney removed. I always wanted to get some flower vines wrapping around my side to cover the scars.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
