Every now and then I notice on some before and after pics , I see people with tattoos ! Personally I dont think tattoos are good or evil , there just great to look at! I have 3 myself...I kind of got a tiger theme hapnen. I got a giant tiger on both for arms and a dragon being wrapped around a giant tiger on my shoulder!

I would love to hear about other people here that have tattoos and what they have ! Also if its not to personal where they have them...lol

As you can tell by most of my postings tigers are my favorite animal and just for kicks I was born in the year of the tiger!

I too was born in the year of the tiger...I have 9 myself and what is interesting is the way skin effected them and how they look. The ones on my feet..they're unchanged but the one on my thigh and the one on my chest and the one on my back...they moved and changed some with the weight loss. Personally the one on my chest is better now placement wise the way it shifted to be centered between my breasts.

the one on my back has the kanji for tiger & it's within a scroll which originally was a curved shape and now is straight!

my carp was short and fat and is not long looking which is ok, I guess.

I have 4. I have one on my left breast that I got when I turned 18 it is a rose. Its has definately changed its appreance sinece I have gained over 100 pounds since getting it. I also have a rose on my left lower hip. Havent seen that one in over 13 years. Then I have the warner brother frog on the inside of my left ankle. On my right ankle I have a brcelet of names it has all 3 of my kids names and my husbands name. I got it when he was in Iraq the 1st time. Although I was under the influence and the guy spelled my sons name wrong and I was too relaxed to notice til weeks later. Its not a huge deal his name is Jonathon and he spelled it Jonathan...not huge but hubby teases me about it often. Once I get my surgery and lose the weight and maintain for a bit I want to get one on my lower back. Not sure of wheat though

OH MY GOD Beckamarie!!! The Warner Bros frog??? MICHIGAN J FROG!!!!!!!! He's my favorite! I was going to get him but they told me he wouldnt hold up because green on afro americans doesnt look good after a year or so. I LOVE that little guy lol!

I have two tatoos one of an ankh on the back of my neck - egyptian symbol for life, and one of elmo on my right shoulder blade. i got elmo first when i was 17. always loved elmo. i used to where an elmo backpack in highschool and one weekend we decided to sneak into NYC and get tattoos so i got him. he still looks decent i guess... I dunno. i havent seen it in a while. i plan to get more but am waiting until i lose the majority of my weight. i dont want it to shrink while i shrink lol.


This is an ankh. The attachment has my elmo in it.

I have two, one is a bracelet on my right wrist I got about 5 years and 40 - 50 lbs ago with roses and hearts.... It's a little stretched out but it doesn't look too bad. The other one I just got in Vegas in March before I was sure I wanted to go through with the surgery. It's on my left calf a rose and a bluebird with a banner that goes above the bird and below the rose that has my kids names on it.

Has anyone had tattoos that have really gone south after surgery? That's the only thing I'm worried about with these.

Kenya, I just love Elmo too! He's the best!
