Anyone else watching their tattoos Shrinky-Dink?

Options
Yep, thats what i'm doing.... watching how weight loss changes my tattoos. Weird...

So, I'm started and have gotten a bit of progress, but I think i need encouragement to keep from stalling. Anyone wanna trade snarky comments and impromptu support on here while I've decided to try and be social?

    Yeah, it's kinda cool to watch...and yet they still look like they should. I haven't had any get all funky from loss or gain.

    I don't think mine's shrinking. But it's on my back/shoulder blade, so I can't really inspect it too thoroughly haha.

    I got mine before I gained a lot of my weight so the one on my hip, I am looking forward to the stretch marks in it going away!! That or I will get it touched up once I get to my goal weight.....AND get another!! LOL

    I love it! My tattoos are in places where they won't shrink (ankle and inside hip) but I'll bet that's a fascinating process to watch. 65 pounds is definitely a great start. Feel free to friend me, if you'd like. :)

    I have noticed a few subtle changes in the way they look, but thankfully they all look like what they are supposed to look like. :) I'm rewarding myself with another tattoo in a few weeks because I've made a lot of good progress in several areas of my life.
