I am getting it on my lower back, a tramp tat. It will be awesome.

This is the template for the one I have on my Left ankle. I used the words in a circle and in the center is only the #3.

just found this thread ...

i have 4

the obligatory rose on ankle (first one)

a crescent moon with stars on my right hip

what is now known as a "tramp stamp" :cool: of a celtic symbol (although i got it about 10 years ago - before it became trampy ... at least i think so)

the chinese character for energy on my back - right under my bra strap

looking for maybe 1 more when i hit goal. my 'tramp stamp' will probably be toast after my PS.

I love tattoos too! I have three; right boob, a purple daisy with a couple leaves and vines, a black outlined tulip on the inside of my right ankle (ouch!), and most recently I got the top of my left foot done with three daisy like flowers with vines and leaves to represent my three children, the colors are the same as their birth stones.....I am going for a tramp stamp (hate the name, love the placement of this tattoo) after I hit goal. I am not into butterflies but to me they symbolize freedom and being carefree so that is what I plan on getting. If anyone sees any awesome butterfly tattoos anywhere, I would love it if you pass it along to me. I am looking for something like two or three starting to fly.

I have always wanted a tatoo but never could decide on what to get. Last week I almost lost my mother. Her name is Rosalinda. So I have decided to get 3 roses on the top of my foot or hip (still can't decide). Rosalinda means beautiful rose. And I'm getting three, because she had 3 kids and I have 3 kids.. What do you think?? She doesn't like tatoos, but I like them, my brother has 3 and she wasn't happy when he got them.. WEll, tell me, what do you think of my idea?? I know that roses are not very original, but tell me??

I think roses can make a beautiful tattoo, but what is important is if you like the idea and that it means something significant to you. If it does, then I say go for it!

I have 1! I have the Eye of Horus on my but. That way I can keep an eye on you, even if I am coming or going. Yes, I've heard 'em all. I love it. It is my good luck charm, since it's meaning is "an amulent against injury". I want more, but partner is not hearing that...soooooo...none for me now.

1) on my shoulder blade- a tiny frog

2) on my lower back- frog prints across my lower back

3) on my ass cheek- a tribal art frog

4) on my ankle- a rose with my name

I don't have any tats, but if I did, I'd get a tiny little "X" on the tushie, so when people respond with,"Bare it and share it!" I could pull down my waistband, indicate the "X", and say, "X marks the spot, sweetpea!"

In light of getting LBS, though, I might get a dot to dot tattoo. That way it would from a solid design as I lost weight.

Excuse me while I laugh myself silly; I'm easily amused.:eyebrows:

I have one on my left foot - two flowers entwined in vines.

I'm thinking of getting a dragon on my back when I lose all my weight - a goal present.

Just 1 so far. It's the core of what will be a half sleeve. I'm planning on adding a checker flag wrap around the top, and skeleton gears along the bottom. This pic was taken right after it was put on, so there's some discoloration and bleeding.

whenever I hit size 8 or 160, which ever first, I am getting my 1st tats..Please see diagram below.. I am getting ants marching down my back into my pants, starting at my bra strap, ending around the tramp stamp spot.

I like bugs, I took a class over them one semester and would love to work with them as a career..but I dont want a butterfly- too girly, a beetle- too common or a wasp/bee- too school mascot-y

Its also to symbolize my path in life, though while not always straight, I kept going, also stands for hard work

Plus then I can say I have ants in my pants..which I am already starting to get as I lose my weight!!!! hehe

the box is my back, the dots are the ants and the line at the bottom of my box is my pants..I m thinking 2-3 inchs big...b/t 3-4, but I have to the artist to make sure the size isok, I would like smaller, but dont want blur...

      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.
