Redmaxx 740 Posted May 2, 2017 Has anyone gotten some new ink to Celebrate and/or commemorate their WLS? Thinking of getting something but not sure what yet. Was thinking maybe a kangaroo (since I am a pouch). Please let me know if you did and if possible post a photo of it. Thanks. 5 rnymorales, ProudGrammy, Raymia and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Newme17 3,444 Posted May 3, 2017 I'll post a photo a year out from now. Lol. I do plan on getting more. 😊 1 Redmaxx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biginjapan 647 Posted May 3, 2017 It's something I'd like to do, once I hit goal, and after I've had plastics. But I'm not sure what I want to get yet, as my decision will probably be based on what my skin (and scars) look like at that time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walter.Sobchak 978 Posted May 3, 2017 I have two I would like to get covered, once I have lost the weight. I would say it would be best to wait until you have reached goal weight before you get any work done.

orionburn 1,024 Posted May 3, 2017 I plan on getting an new one soon, but it'll be on my lower leg where I don't expect much change. Luckily my existing pieces are in areas where the loss of weight shouldn't affect them too much. There are things I'd like to do but am waiting to lose more weight and see if I'm going to have to consider getting plastic surgery or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redmaxx 740 Posted May 3, 2017 Maybe this with the date of 20 Oct 2016 (the date of my surgery). 2 ProudGrammy and ColleenErin1974 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted May 3, 2017 Not sure about the joey in the pouch, but otherwise it's cool! 1 Redmaxx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Berry78 4,261 Posted May 3, 2017 Not sure about the joey in the pouch, but otherwise it's cool! Edited to add... kangaroo kebobs might be tasty! Lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redmaxx 740 Posted May 8, 2017 Ok, I found another line drawing without the Joey. 1 ColleenErin1974 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted May 8, 2017 That is better. My hubby recommended trying a boxing kangaroo. 1 Redmaxx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ColleenErin1974 195 Posted May 8, 2017 I have multiple tatts and I'm getting one before surgery. My daughters are coming to see me in June, and we are getting inked together. They both already have numerous and they are all tasteful.We are getting bear paw prints done. They are each getting a cub paw print the color of their birthstones. Mine will be a large paw print in my birthstone color and below that will be my Cubs!This drawing is what I'm getting, but the flower will be a sunflower.Under everything I am getting some sort of an affirmation or quote about daughters too. 2 Redmaxx and Berry78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted May 8, 2017 Sorry, had to jump off and didn't quite finish. We were thinking a boxing kangaroo to represent the struggle, and then I thought what if he had a medal to show he won? Here is something similar, but instead of the shirt, he should have a medal around his neck with your pounds lost # inside. 1 Redmaxx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted May 8, 2017 Another thought... There are other kinds of animals that have a pouch. Any marsupial: Wallabies, possums, koalas, wombats, gliders, tasmanian devils Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
