Tattoos

[lilbarn752 3]

I know this has been asked but just curious how your tattoos look after the sleeve. I'm hoping to get sleeved come November (my 6 months of medically supervised diet is up in September).

I have a tattoo on my ribs that I got when I was thinner so I'm not too worried about that one--but I have a sugar skull on my upper arm and am concerned with how it will look after a (hopefully) 100+ lb weight loss.

All the fat seems to be under my arm but you never know. Any insight is helpful!

I have 4 tattoos, none of which were impacted by my sleeve. I have two on my lower back, one on the top of my foot, and one on the inside of my right leg, just above my ankle. The ones at the bottom of my back were most at risk I suppose (they are reaaallly low) and they look just the same.

I've got one on my lower back, one on my ankle and one on my forearm. None of them changed after losing 100 pounds. The one on my lower back would probably be ruined if I ever got a butt lift, but that's not in the plan for now. The skin on my upper arms tightened up pretty well, so I don't think a tattoo there would have been an issue.

I actually just got a new one (we ran out of time so it's only 3/4 done) under my collarbone and up unto my shoulder. I was originally going to get the new one on my side/ribs, but I've got enough loose skin there I was afraid it would get wrinkly as I get older.

Thank you both so much! Congrats on your weight losses! I can't wait to join the club

Thankfully mine go down my calf to my ankle. They've gotten smaller but look great. So glad I chose not to tattoo my ass.

I have a dragon with lots of fine lines on my deltoid that has weathered the 95 pound loss really well. That's a very "solid" area to begin with. I think it looks better now, actually.
