I am getting it on my lower back, a tramp tat. It will be awesome.

This is the template for the one I have on my Left ankle. I used the words in a circle and in the center is only the #3.

just found this thread ...

i have 4

the obligatory rose on ankle (first one)

a crescent moon with stars on my right hip

what is now known as a "tramp stamp" :cool: of a celtic symbol (although i got it about 10 years ago - before it became trampy ... at least i think so)

the chinese character for energy on my back - right under my bra strap

looking for maybe 1 more when i hit goal. my 'tramp stamp' will probably be toast after my PS.

I love tattoos too! I have three; right boob, a purple daisy with a couple leaves and vines, a black outlined tulip on the inside of my right ankle (ouch!), and most recently I got the top of my left foot done with three daisy like flowers with vines and leaves to represent my three children, the colors are the same as their birth stones.....I am going for a tramp stamp (hate the name, love the placement of this tattoo) after I hit goal. I am not into butterflies but to me they symbolize freedom and being carefree so that is what I plan on getting. If anyone sees any awesome butterfly tattoos anywhere, I would love it if you pass it along to me. I am looking for something like two or three starting to fly.

I have always wanted a tatoo but never could decide on what to get. Last week I almost lost my mother. Her name is Rosalinda. So I have decided to get 3 roses on the top of my foot or hip (still can't decide). Rosalinda means beautiful rose. And I'm getting three, because she had 3 kids and I have 3 kids.. What do you think?? She doesn't like tatoos, but I like them, my brother has 3 and she wasn't happy when he got them.. WEll, tell me, what do you think of my idea?? I know that roses are not very original, but tell me??

I think roses can make a beautiful tattoo, but what is important is if you like the idea and that it means something significant to you. If it does, then I say go for it!

I have 1! I have the Eye of Horus on my but. That way I can keep an eye on you, even if I am coming or going. Yes, I've heard 'em all. I love it. It is my good luck charm, since it's meaning is "an amulent against injury". I want more, but partner is not hearing that...soooooo...none for me now.

ok ok...my turn. I have four.

1) on my shoulder blade- a tiny frog

2) on my lower back- frog prints across my lower back

3) on my ass cheek- a tribal art frog

4) on my ankle- a rose with my name

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to get another when I lose my weight.

I don't have any tats, but if I did, I'd get a tiny little "X" on the tushie, so when people respond with,"Bare it and share it!" I could pull down my waistband, indicate the "X", and say, "X marks the spot, sweetpea!"

In light of getting LBS, though, I might get a dot to dot tattoo. That way it would from a solid design as I lost weight.

Excuse me while I laugh myself silly; I'm easily amused.:eyebrows:

I have one on my left foot - two flowers entwined in vines.

I'm thinking of getting a dragon on my back when I lose all my weight - a goal present.

Just 1 so far. It's the core of what will be a half sleeve. I'm planning on adding a checker flag wrap around the top, and skeleton gears along the bottom. This pic was taken right after it was put on, so there's some discoloration and bleeding.

whenever I hit size 8 or 160, which ever first, I am getting my 1st tats..Please see diagram below.. I am getting ants marching down my back into my pants, starting at my bra strap, ending around the tramp stamp spot.

I like bugs, I took a class over them one semester and would love to work with them as a career..but I dont want a butterfly- too girly, a beetle- too common or a wasp/bee- too school mascot-y

Its also to symbolize my path in life, though while not always straight, I kept going, also stands for hard work

Plus then I can say I have ants in my pants..which I am already starting to get as I lose my weight!!!! hehe

the box is my back, the dots are the ants and the line at the bottom of my box is my pants..I m thinking 2-3 inchs big...b/t 3-4, but I have to the artist to make sure the size isok, I would like smaller, but dont want blur...

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
