    I have this goal in mind too. I want a large piece on my back but I've got about 100 pounds to go first. I'm glad I'm not the only one on this wavelength.

    I'm thinking of getting a butterfly on my shoulder and some a heart with a lot of curves and lines from it on the lower back when I reach goal. LOL, the hubby just looks at me and shakes his head.

    I was going to get one when I hit my first milestone but I am reconsidering that. Was considering the Flag that flies on the ships from the TV Show "Whale Wars". Good luck trying to figure yours out.

    I want to get "Never Going Back" on the inside of my wrist, as a reminder of how hard i worked to get there. If I ever get there!
  • I want to get a bunch of tattoos when I reach my gw. But I think the first one I'll get is a wolf with a quote from the song "Hungry Wolf" by X. I also might get a pin-up of Frankenfurter but that is definitely up in the air. LOL

    I really want to get a zia somewhere on me, and a HP quote. :) But, I want both of them to be somewhere that isn't too noticeable... You know? Still gotta be a lady. :)

    When I reached my half way mark, I got the first part of my back tattoo done. Its a Gaelic cross with a claddagh for the ring. When i reach my goal. another 50 lbs or so. I will get the rest of it finished. Celtic knot wings coming from behind the cross, and my families name.

    But that's me. :)

    I want two when I hit my goal - I want my two daughter's initials entwined with a daisy but not sure where. Then on my wrist I want a small design to symbolize my brother who was killed when I was a teenager. A lot of my weight came from losing him when I was young and eating away my unhappiness - when the weight is gone I want to remember all of the good.

    I am getting a sea horse just below my belly button. But I want him living in a calm ocean, no "waves"! lol I can't find the perfect one though, I don't want it too cartoony. I have several others I want but him for sure.

    I have a tattoo I got on my 18th birthday, given I got it right around when I gained a ton of weight (had an issue with depression and the medication with it). It actually has helped me keep my mind on what I want. It's a heart with wings and a lock and it says live in Italian (vivere). I have it on my ribs and if I want it to look good I need to lose weight (just a bit of extra motivation). It was kind of a tribute to my grandpa ( who's Italian ) I loved him very much, but he had a lot of health issues from being overweight. I got it with the goal to remind myself everyday that I should live my life the fullest.
    I think you have a wonderful intention with the tattoo, it has to be something very meaningful and I can't think of anything more meaningful then one's journey to find one's self. =] good luck.

    When I reach my goal weight I want to get 'Stay Gold' on my shoulder. It's a quote from my favorite book The Outsiders. I also wanna get 'alis volat propriis' (she flies with her own wings).
