If not naked maybe a old school Pin up girl. :)

I guess a stylized sleeve wouldn't be it, huh? LOL

I plan on a scale! Not sure what to put "in" the scale but it's symbolic to me. And my fiancé is a libra so I don't have to explain it to anyone if I don't wanna. I'm hoping it'll be an awesome rib piece :)

I'm planning on having a beautiful lotus blossom done kind of Indian style celebrating my metamorphasis of change. Almost like something you would see with a henna tattoo, lots of scroll work surrounding the central blossom.

hmmmmm, lizv123 like the idea about a "scale"

butterthebean, maybe put a saying like "I did it", above the scale

depends how much you want to explain to others what the above mean?

good luck on your decision

i'm loving my tatoo w/initials of my 3 grandkids, doing this was my "big reward" after losing weight.

promised DH i wouldn't do another tattoo for another 58 years!!!!

Use your start weight so you never forget where you came from. 3 numbers like that can be very cool.

Im lookin at a full quarter sleeve koi fish. On the top of his head he will have a juggernaut symbol.

The Koi is for luck, fortune, and perseverance

Juggernaut symbol- the unstoppable force. no matter how many times i get knocked down i keep going

metamorphasis of change

katie

luv that, caterpiller to butterfly, how's that????

I have been thinking about this for a while. I'm moderately tattooed already, but my weight has slowed that down in recent years (volatile canvas syndrome). I like the start weight idea. I want to get my stocking finished finally, but te BF is against it (he is a leg man & doesn't think women's legs should be graffiti'ed lol) but he is a professional artist so maybe if I let him help with the design.... ;}

The words "Vita Nova" it's Latin for new life or life anew.

Why don't you sit down with the tattoo artist to design something that embodies your life, your discipline and dedication to your weight loss journey. Your two heads together you can come up with something unique. Good luck?

I am 105lbs from goal and I was thinking yesterday of rewards I can give myself everytime I lose ten lbs. things like "get hair done" "diamond earrings" "iPad" are a few of the ones on my list. When I reach my ultimate goal of 140lbs I will be getting a tattoo. I love the Phoenix idea..even a butterfly to symbolize where we were and where we are. I was also thinking of having the # of lbs I lost to be written in Roman numerals under the butterfly or Phoenix. The tattoo would be on my back, to symbolize that that part of my life is behind me.

Uh....diamond earrings and an iPad for 10 pounds? That's gonna get expensive real quick. But I can't talk, I want to buy myself a Harley when I hit goal, but my wife reminded me she knows a good divorce lawyer.
