I just decided now & I can't wait! I had it done many many years ago, but I let it close up when I gained the weight. I just entered the final 20 lbs of my weight loss today, so I'm gonna frickin' do this! I'm so excited!

    Incredible weight loss!! Great job sticking with it. Enjoy your piercing. I just got mine done for the second time also. I got it done in the same spot as the first one and it never hurt as much, amazingly. Again, nice work on the weight loss :drinker:
  • Great job :) I was going to do mine when I hit 145 but decided to do it when I hit 135 :) Have fun and again, great job.

    It hurt like a biotch the first time. I expect the same today. Anything less than that would be nice!

    I want to get mine pierced but I don't think I'll be able to take the pain. I hate needles

    I hate needles, too. But I've been pierced over 35 times, and have twelve tattoos.. it's not as bad as it seems!

    What do you have pierced? I think I might not be done! I've got 4 in my left ear, 2 in my right, and now my belly button re-done. I need to keep it low key, because I work in a business environment.

    Cool. I pierced my own belly button when I was 16. I took it out years ago, but I am thinking about getting it done again.

    You deserve to treat yourself. When I reach my goal I'm going to buy some expensive cloths that I never wanted to try on when I was at my biggest.

    Yep, that might be something to think about.

    Lucky you!
    I wish I could, but if my piercing is somewhere else than around the mouth, my body rejects the jewel... Yet, I never tied the belly button... might try.. in case it has changed... but it will be my reward for when I will achieve getting my tummy hard again!

    Congratulations!

    I got mine at 18, took it out when I got pregnant at26. Was able to put it back in 3 years ago and 2 babies latter. Took it out again for the 3rd pregnancy and put it back after.
