Tattoo Question

[surtur]

Recently, I've been contemplating a tattoo on my chest. My concern is that I've been losing weight, currently at 250, and I'm wondering if I get it now and get to my next goal of 225 (ultimately want to try to get to 200) will it start looking distorted/stretched? Anyone have any idea?
It is going to be kind of circular, I'm wanting a gothic looking wheel of chaos...

well, ask yourself this question. if the rear bumper of your car was badly dented and scraped and it needed some work done to it, would you put a bumper sticker on it before the work was done?

In my opinion, I would say wait until you reach your goal weight to do any big peices.

How much did you weigh originally?


Congrats on your weight loss and I hope you get towards your goal I know it takes alot of discipline to diet successfully.

Maybe it's me but I don't get it.

It's taken 3 years so far, guess I can wait longer
I was around 415lbs
Been overweight my entire life, but I'm still working on it. No surgery, just found a diet that worked for awhile, then started watching what I eat. More exercise is needed now, though.

Please wait until you reach your goal weight because tattoos will stretch or break apart and become distorted with weight gain, weight loss and growth spurts. Good job on the weight loss!

congrats!

I would wait till you are at the weight you want
