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.

      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.
