Tattoo as a reward?
Options
The more I get in shape the more I really want a tattoo. I've wanted one for years but always felt like, "well no one is ever going to see it..." I think I'm going to draw one up and sit on it a while and maybe get it next year after I'm my goal weight for a while. Anyone else do this?

Definitely!
I have a motivational system I call "Tatt for Fatt", I just now came up with that. Cool, huh?
Every 20 lbs lost, I treat myself to a tattoo and when I reach my goal weight, I'm getting my big piece done.0 -
I was thinking about that the other day, once back in shape, get a tattoo, probably something to represent my daughter!0
-
I had one before I got fat, and always said I wanted to add to it. Now I'm comfortable to sit with my top off, I'm definitely looking to get it done!0
-
Do it! That's something I would like to do when I get to my goal!
Good luck!

Yep! I'm planning on getting my third tattoo when I've reached my UGW, and a belly button piercing
But who cares if noones going to see the tattoo, I got mine for me and aslong as I can see it

Haha, lots of tattoo lovers I see. Tbh I am super not good with needles but after having a baby I think I can do it now, soooo much blood drawn and an iv? A tat can't be so bad.0

You wont really even notice that it involves needles. Tattoos aren't as painful as you think they're gonna be. I think that's a great goal to set for yourself!0
-
When I reach goal I am getting large pieces done on my ribs0
-
hmmmm.some are more painful than others!........but youve been through childbirth so no doubt it'll be a breeze!:)0
-
That's what I do. Go for it!0

Tattoos as a reward are a great idea, I am working towards a chest tattoo... Currently rocking 7 others, and to be completely honest, they aren't that painful. Yes certain areas are your body are more sensitive, and certain tattoo artists tattoo a little more heavy handed, but all in all they are a great idea.0

have one on my lower back that before, would have look crazy in all the fat,,, but looks not burried in fat now so its good,,,lol0

not knocking tats in any way.have quite a few and i'm getting tattooed tomorrow!0

Thinking the same thing - hit my target and hold it for 3-6 months, get some ink done. Reminder of where I came from and how I got here.0

Just depends where you get it placed as far as pain, Ive had 2 babies no drugs and my last one hurt like a Son of a B**** lol. I cried on the inside, too much pride on the outside. Anywhooo great motivation and happy that you reached a point where you feel comfortable getting one. I just got my belly to that point. My next is on my rib cage, next week Whoo hoo!!!0

Not exactly as a reward for weight loss, but getting in shape led me to start doing obstacle races. And when I complete my next one I plan to get this:
It'll be my first tattoo.0
