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

Tasmanian devil you say?????? HHHHMMMMMM

I'm going tonight for a consult with one of the artists I see. Just a smaller leg piece so it won't be in an area that I have to worry about. My bigger concern with getting new work done was being able to get enough in food wise to help combat the fatigue from sitting. I usually sit like a champ but my last leg work tapped me out due to a lot of interruptions we had. This should only be a 2 hour piece so hoping it won't be so bad before I get back to working on my other leg that's going to be a half sleeve.

Aww, I liked the cute kangaroo with the joey. :)

I have three...one on my foot, one on my calf, one on my ankle. No surgery until August. I'm not sure yet if I'll ink after. It's a neat thought to commemorate it.

The one with the joey is really cute... But not the most masculine of tats...

I got my phoenix over my right shoulder to Celebrate losing 100 lbs. He took 2 sittings to finish, one for outline, one for colour, about 4 hours in total. I love the way he turned out! Represents my rebirth into a healthy lifestyle.

As soon as my tummy flatten out more I'm getting a tat to cover my scar from my appendectomy

I have an appointment in June for a new one on my arm, unrelated to the surgery but totally related to family and refusing to grow up.

I do plan on getting a commemorative tattoo when i reach goal. I'm about 80 pounds from goal now. I need to work with an artist to get it drawn up. My idea is to have a chain breaking for no longer feeling trapped with the word strenth in one of the links, I'm trying to decide whether to have 540 for where I started or 340 for how much I had lost possibly in roman numerals, a sunrise in the background for new beginnings, a lotus flower for rising out of suffering, with the quote "The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing." around it or underneath it.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
