    I have 14... started collecting them when I was 19... and have co-mingled several of them into quarter sleeves but now want to go the next step and get a full on sleeve for the left arm. But now that I have a 2 year old a second daughter on the way, I'm not sure where the money is going to come from. One day, maybe!

    I know the feeling! Sometimes it seems like my son is secretly ninja'ing away all my play/tattoo money haha!

    I would love to get a half sleeve one day, but I can never decide what I'd want as a concept or design for it.

    I have 4. I got the first when I was 26 and the last this July. They form a vignette that is not quite complete so when that money falls from the sky I will finish it up. Then it will only count as one tatoo :) I am very happy with my ink and would do it again in a heartbeat.

    I have 3 so far. A 22 year old panther which desperately needs a new outline, a gorgeous vine-and-flowers tramp stamp and an atheist symbol (with star of David inside for mom & dad) on the back of my neck.

    I have been really obsessed lately with getting another tattoo..or 2... Right now my thoughts are on an owl on the outside of my calf. I can't see any of my current tats without a mirror! I am also thinking about an octopus on my foot but I hear that hurts the WORST.

    I have a pretty large tattoo that follows the line of my hip - it's a gorgeous stargazer lily (has a lot of meaning to me) with vinework that swoops down my hip. It's so feminine and I LOVE IT! When I put on weight, though, I felt way too uncomfortable to show it off. I'm the same as you - one big reason for me to lose weight (aside from being healthier and looking better in general) is to be able to show off my awesome tattoo again. I also want to get some script on my ribcage, but I definitely need to lose all my weight before I do that. It's going to be my goal weight reward ;)

    I have an ankle band, a vine of flowers that comes up from my foot to mid-calf, a quote on my ribs, and a stupid tribal that I regret on my hip bone. I would like to cover up the last one with a big side piece.

    I have 6! 2 on my chest, one on my wrist, one on my inside ankle, one on my shoulder, and one on my elbow. I am looking to do a HUGE peice on my thighs. I want both of my thighs covered in ink front to back! I love it.

    I never thought of my weightloss as being a canvas, but if i get smaller it does open up some places that i would be willing to put more ink!

    Now I have a itch for ink all over again! lol

    I only have 1 tattoo right now, my dog's name that I got when I was 21. I've been wanting a couple more tattoos but have been afraid to since I'm overweight. I had a friend who lost weight and her tattoos just didn't look right after. When I get under 200lbs I want to have my friend design this tattoo for me that's kind of hard to explain but would be this psychadelic dreamscape, kind of like Hieronymous Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights. I want it on the back of my left shoulder. Then I want to get one on my wrist when I get to my goal weight. These two arrows (one pointing up--Exercise More-- and one pointing down--Eat Less) with 170 (my total weight loss, hopefully) in the middle between them. It's been like a little mental image to keep me motivated and I think it would be really symbolic to end my journey with getting that tattoo.

    I technically have 8 (counting the one under another one >_<) & would LOVE to have more. One that I'm currently working on is an arm piece that will eventually be a quarter sleeve or possibly a cap (pictures on my profile). My arm is my favorite one so far, but I have one on each shoulder blade, one in between my shoulder blades, on my foot, my forearm, and a cover-up on my wrist.

    Any other tattoo obsessionists, feel free to add me! ^__^

    **Edited to add pics!**

    Part of my motivation to transform my body has been to create the kind of 'canvas' I want to display art on ;-)


    I have 4 tattoos with another one on the way this year. :laugh:

    I think transforming your body for tattoo art is awesome motivation! Keep up the great work.
