    I saw this really cool picture once of a woman chiseling her body out of overweight body. It was pretty awesome.

    I'm getting a pair of Apollo wings on both ankles. Getting it done four weeks before my first marathon

    I don't have experience with this, but will that be enough time to heal?

    I had a tattoo put on my back/shoulder saying "she believed she could so she did". This sums up my weight loss journey for me!

    This is literally one of my favorite sayings!

    I would just get a tattoo of something you already wanted. It doesn't have to mean anything related to weight loss. It could just be a reward for a milestone.

    I wanted one when I hit 100lbs. I've lost more than 100 but I still can't decide. I've searched for symbols of determination, perseverance etc. I just can't find anything that I like. Good luck finding something!

    Faith, Hope, & Love

    Faith in yourself to make the change
    Hope that grows every time you see a change in the scale
    Love yourself no matter what bumps you encounter on the way.

    You have intrigued me with the tattoo ideas so i had to google it. I saw some pretty ones with birds, hearts, transformation tattoos.

    I like the idea of the birds also. I saw one where the birds were coming out of a feather... that was a pretty one.

    You could also have inspirational words to accompany a picture. Writing can also be pretty. Some words that i think of for this:
    - Strength
    - Believe to Achieve
    - Be the change you want to see in the world
    - Pursuit of Happiness

    Congratulations on losing 75lbs! That's awesome!

    I've been wanting a tattoo for years, but was afraid to since I'm obese. I decided recently that my reward for losing enough weight to no longer be "overweight" (lol another 30-something pounds to go) will be a tattoo like I've always wanted.

    My tattoo will be something on my thigh - I saw a design for a black garter Sailor Moon design and fell in love with it. I think getting a tattoo on one of my most mixed body parts (I've spent most of my life hating yet feeling proud of my 'strong' thighs) would be very, very rewarding.

    I know somebody who got a tattoo saying mind over matter (it was the word mind, then a line under it and the word matter under that line). That's basically what weight loss is all about!

    I know this sounds weird, but I wouldn't want to get a tattoo pertaining to my weight because it would seem like a scar rather than an achievement. If I were to lose all of my weight I would probably get the harry potter tattoo I have always wanted. (Been a fully fledged potterhead for over 16 years now and have used a trip to the wizarding world as motivation for my last significant weight loss)
