Hey all,

I've heard a few people here saying they want to get a new tattoo or their 1st tattoo when they hit their goal weight. It's also what I want to do. If you were thinking of it, let's here it! Say what and where and why! E.g. I am getting either a quote ("Stick to the fight when hardest hit") or an owl wearing a top hat and monocle holding a pocket watch. Both of these have specific meanings to me but also Owls are my favourite animal!

Anyone wanting to share please do!!

    It's definitely on my "rewards" list!

    I want something either above both knees, or below the crease behind my knee. I don't know what I want there... but I love those placement areas!

    I've been considering getting one once I get my weight where I want it, or when I'm made 100% at my current job. "Nothing is permanent" on my right shoulder to go with "You are who you choose to be" on my left.

    I love that so many people are doing this! Nicely done guys I'll add you all :) Think piercings are just as cool to! Once you've done it put a picture up!

    I did! I got a Dragon to represent my old life and a Phoenix for my new life.

    "Nothing is permanent"

    Hmmm.... That might be permanent.

    But in the total scheme of things nothing is. My tattoo now says any with time this too shall pass, because life on earth is temporary. weather you believe in something after death or not life is temporary.

    I'm getting a tattoo when I lose 50lbs, which is a little more than half way to my goals. I'm going to get a butterfly on my wrist with my grandparent's initials. Mostly because when my grandparent's died my oldest (who was 4 at the time) said that she saw my grandparents as butterflies. And the funny part is that in the summer whenever we talk about my grandparents two butterflies usually fly by.

    Not to my goal but I do want my first now! I can't decide what I want though. I want 13.1 somewhere (foot?) too.

    Sounds like a lovely idea. My fiancée has tattoos of butterflies on her. Its all she wants. She shares a similar idea about people passing referring to them as butterflies.

    I just can't bring myself to do this. I worry it might not come out right or I will get tired of it.

    I wanted to get a big tat on my back once I hit goal... but once I did I could see some nice muscle definition there and didn't want to cover it up, now I don't know what to do :D

    I do, I've always wanted tattoos but have been embarrassed to show any skin really. I'm expecting some pretty wicked scaring around my torso and am going to get some, partially to hopefully cover up the scars somewhat and as kind of a reward to myself.
