weight loss tattoos

I was curious if anyone got a tattoo to Celebrate their weight loss.

What did you get? and why?

I was thinking about getting a tattoo that has to be done in stages or something I could simply add to every 50lbs lost or something like that. Looking for ideas

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 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.

that would be funny as f**k

After the tummy tuck and skin removal' date=' 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!!

Really? I thought they kept the belly button somehow?

Not always.

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.

Tattoos rock!!!, but placement is key to a successful looking sexy tattoos good luck guys!.
