Anyone get new ink?



Recommended Posts

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.

I'll post a photo a year out from now. Lol. I do plan on getting more. 😊

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.

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.

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.

Maybe this with the date of 20 Oct 2016 (the date of my surgery).

Not sure about the joey in the pouch, but otherwise it's cool!

That is better. My hubby recommended trying a boxing kangaroo.

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!IMG_0479.JPG
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.

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.

Another thought... There are other kinds of animals that have a pouch. Any marsupial: Wallabies, possums, koalas, wombats, gliders, tasmanian devils

      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.
