Any other tattooed sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Well, I used to be skinny so I have one on like my upper hip area of a butterfly. It's pretty small, but it's cute. I am thinking about getting another one after I lose weight. Just not sure what or where yet.

I have 4 of them but they were all pre-sleeve! I have a butterfly (ink and a needle at age 14) on my bottom, tribal art in a diamond shape on my lower back (tramp stamp - got it WAY before it was called that and before it was "cool" to have it there) I have tribal art on the back of my neck/top of my back that has a Gemini symbol in the middle of it for my daughter and then I have a teddybear holding a heart on my breast. I am very surprised that none of them have been distorted from weight gain or loss! I do want more but I haven't decided on what or where yet!

I didn't get my "tramp stamp" until I was 38. I kinda liked the sound of it! LOL! I thought it was cool! I'm such a dork!

Oh girls! I already have four tats- all pre surgery. For my post surgery tat I am going to get a peacock feather in full color on the outside of my right leg from knee level down to ankle. It's going to be gorgeous! Think it's pretty fitting since we're all transforming so beautifully :) Will try n post some pics after I get it done in the next few weeks. (Will take 2-3 sessions to get it all done).

I have 6 tattoos. Nothing is sleeve related. I have my children's names, 4 names, around one ankle, Marvin the Martian on the other ankle, Tweety Bird on my back, chinese symbols for grief and love on the back of neck, In Memory of on my chest and a portrait on my right arm. I love tattoo's and I plan on getting more but I don't know what of yet.

      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.
