Ok so how does this work? You just walk into any tattoo parlor with 8 women and say we each want a tattoo?? Wouldn't that take like hours?? LOL

Get this: I have a dear friend whose son is a tattoo artist here in HOuston. I asked him if he knew any good artists in San Antonio or New Braunfels (Gruene) and he gave me two names!...both in San Antonio. One of them is close to the hotel, i think.

If ya'll are serious about tattoos, I better give them a call and find out if they can do you guys on a Sunday! Let me know!

[note to self: Weldon at Mr., Lucky’s on St. Mary’s (link: Mr. Lucky's Tattoo - Tattoos) in San Antonio. Dustin thinks he’s good. His second choice is Sean at Perfection Tattoo, also in San Antonio. (link: Perfection Tattoo in San Antonio )

Well, I just asked the Bobster and DD what they thought and they said go for it. I just want a tiny one.. I'm not into pain!! They said on my ankle. I want to be able to see it, but also want the least painful place.. I think I will be the first minister's wife in all of Northern Michigan to get a tattoo.

My DH and my DD said the same thing Judy---do it! In fact when I demured, my DD told me---and this is an exact quote of our conversation----------

Manda ---"C'mon Mom grow some balls, Grandma would have got one in a second! I'm gonna get one of a Violet for her, I love the idea"

Me------"Grow some balls? Who raised you? Besides if I can do that, then fine I'll get THEM tattooed!!!"

My DH thinks it is something I will regret not doing, but I ask just the other day and it is an entire year I cannot donate....that really upsets me, so I will have to think about it, and make my decision on the spur of the moment I believe!

Kat-----and nope, nuttin' growin' yet!!!

      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.
