Tattoos & Losing Weight

[TrishS 3]

Anyone out there with Tattoos that have lost a lot of weight? This question is for you... I think I know the answer but Im going to ask my stupid question anyway. Do the Tattoos shrink? I have 4 tattoos, 2 very large ones.. on my ankel and on the back of my leg. They would look funny if they shrunk LOL

Thanks for answering my dumb question LOL

Trish,

I dont have a tattoo - but just wanted to say that this is NOT a dumb question... my sister has 3 tattoo's and is also a very large gal. She asked me the same thing.

Frankly, I dont know, so Ill wait for others to answer 'us'! thanks for asking!

I have 4 tattoos, one on my left hip, which is a pig, one on my left ankle, one on the top of my right foot, and one on my left big toe. The pig stretched when I was pregnant but he is fine now. The pig has stretch marks, but that is it:-)

[TrishS 3]

Thanks Kelly for info... I know when I lose weight i want another tattoo but until then im waiting. Thanks again

Trish i've always wanted a tattoo and I just never got up the nerve to get one. Every time I say somethiong about getting one I get this look from my husband and my mother. (ITS A LOOK LIKE YOU WANNA DO WHAT!!!)

Anyway on a serious note I would love to come see you during balloon festival. i can hardly stand to think about it. my grandfather loved to go and he went every year for as long as I can remember till 2 years ago when he passed away. I can't even think about those ballons without thinking of him. I'll come if you don't mind if I have a good cry while watching them. Then we will get that tattoo!! HAHA!!! SHHH!

Hey all! I have three tats...One on my arm, one on my chest and one on my leg.......Arm is a gothic fairy, one on chest is a dream catcher and the one on my leg is a phoenix with flame work around it. I have my nose pierced and I may end up with a new piercing this weekend! whoohooww! We will see.....But I just had to add my art work in this conversation....If I knew how to add pictures to this message, Id put them up! My tats didn't change as I lost/gained weight...I think it depends where on your body the art is too ...But I know it wont shrink...a five inch tat is a five inch tat, it just may warp a little (like Kellymoos said)
