I am about 70 lbs overweight according to my BMI. When I lose my weight- I want to get my belly button pierced. What are you going to do when you lose your weight and reach your goal?

    Unfortunately it will NOT be to get my belly button pierced. WAY too many stretch marks from my two beautiful kids. No way I want to draw attention to or show that area. Yes I want a toned flat tummy, but it will remain covered in public :-(.

    My reward, maybe a new tattoo ;-)

    I got my navel pierced years ago when I reached my goal weight.

    I have been considering the same thing! I used to have my nose pierced, but my (way too conservative) parents hated it, and I eventually let it grow back together because I was always taking it out in my sleep and I was tired of getting crap from people at jobs and things. But I wish I still had that piercing all the time! So I've considered getting my belly-button pierced, even though it's not the kind of piercing I ever wanted before in my life. (To me, belly-button piercings kind of have a different connotation that nose or lip piercings). But it seems like a good idea now. It's easy to conceal, but fun, and also easy to show off if you WANT to (like at the beach or whatever) . . . but I've been putting it off, too, because I want my stomach to be flatter if I'm going to get a piercing there. I'm just afraid my stomach will never stay flat enough for me to be happy with the way the piercing looks/attention it draws to the area. I've also considered a tattoo as a reward, but the only place I want one is at the top side of my thigh, and I'm afraid of gaining weight/stretch marks messing with it. Dilemma!!! But overall, I do think a piercing is a great reward for weight loss. It draws attention to your "new" body, it's fun, and it's totally reversible (unlike a tattoo, perhaps). Good luck!!

    Well, it's going to be waiting until after I wean, but I'm planning a full back piece.

    I had mine done in my early 30's. I'm almost 50 now. I took my jewelry out a few months ago because it's no longer cute with a muffin top. :(
