Anybody got tattoos??

Hi guys,

I just recently got my 3rd tattoo on my foot/ankle on Tuesday. I absolutely love it! I was wondering if anyone else has any and if so what they are, where and the significance of them. My first one I got when I was 18 on my lower back. It is a dolphin with a moon going through it. I am a swimmer and was still competitively swimming then plus I love dolphins. My 2nd was on my lower hip and is a chinese sign for energy. My 3rd one winds around my right foot/ankle and is a flower with stars around it. Curious about everyone else....

Hi all. I have three. My first is a spider on my upper tight thigh. I'm certain I was going through a rebellious phase at the time. I did that in my early 20's. The second is a tribal band around the same thigh. My last is on my upper left shoulder in script..."The Beautiful One Has Come" which is the meaning of my name. I love art and intend to get more before this summer.

This is my tattoo. I got it for my dad when I was a little kid we were always boating. And so I wanted something to represent our great times. He has always been my anchor. He kept me out of trouble and he is my go to person. I would like to get a tattoo that represents my mom but I don't know what I want to do yet. She passed away recently.

I just got my fourth one on Saturday. It symbolizes the never ending bond between myself, my son and my daughter. I got it on my foot and it was definitely the most painful one thus far. My poor foot is still all swollen.

My newest addition! I finally feel like I am enough! This is big for me!

I have only one tattoo. It has the lapband logo and stars along the tail. It says. "the precious gift of restriction finally acheiving satiety. It has my surgery date also. Mona

so im thinking of getting a chest tattoo and i was wondering should i wait till i hit my target weight or do you think it dont matter

I'll be getting a tattoo, hopefully by May when I visit my son in southern Cali so I can show him. I'm the only one in my family that doesn't have one yet. I designed my hubby's viking tattoo and I'll be designing my own. Still deciding on what - it's permanent and has to be done just right.

It depends on how much more you want to lose, and how much loose skin you have. Your best bet is to talk to the tattoo artist, they should be able to give you a better idea.
