I have 4. Front left above the breast - a big spider web with a comic spider (not realistic), a heart and some initials in it. Back left shoulder - a black panther - my first tat. Right shoulder/back - a female centaur with an arrow drawn and fire around the arrow - b-day gift to myself - I'm a Sagittarius and a fire sign. And lower right above the butt cheek/not quite the back - a tribal lion head with Al V. Jr. - a recent acquisition when I found out a life long friend of mine (who also was my keeper when I was younger) has HIV.

Once I lose weight I want to get a tiger (because I was born in the Chinese year of the Tiger - can you tell I like astrology?) on my front right shoulder/above the breast.

Left shoulder, intertwined hearts, my 3 life verses under that. I was in the process of getting a half sleeve, but I stopped until after my weight loss so that it isn't distorted. I am planing on a nail cross for my right calf.

If you check out my gallery you can see them.

Ahhhh. Now I love them too...I find them incredibly addictive. However, due to my job I can't get them anywhere that they would show including the legs, arms, back of the neck, etc. If I could, I definitely would get a sleeve. I do love them. But you know what? The pesky buggers are expensive too! My centaur was about $700 and took 6 hours to do in one sitting (lots of detail). I'll have to see if I could take a pic of it and update it as my avatar so you could see.

I have two I got when I was around 22 years old. I have a smallish sun on my upper left shoulder and a crescent moon on my right inside ankle. I have considered having the one on my ankle removed as there is no special significance to it. I would like a four leaf clover with the first initial of my boys, and husband's names.

Haven't posted a pic like this before...sorry if this turns out to be ginormous or something. But here's the centaur on my back. I absolutely love it and my tattoo guy drew it up while I was waiting and then free handed the detail. Love love love this tattoo. Too bad it's not on the front where I can see it all the time!

Alright, so that didn't work. I went ahead and updated my avatar instead.

It is beautiful!

Ok CG, I am telling my wife this is your fault, I just emailed my artist what I wanted on my calf. I waited 57 years to get my first one, and by the time I retire I am going to end up looking like the illustrated man. :o

If the body is a temple, why not decorate the walls? Inkmag.com

Very very true! They are works of art and usually tell quite a story!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
