I went and did something today that will, with a bit of luck, give me new motivation to knuckle
down and get to goal. I got my belly button pierced :-)

(Frantically looking for bellybutton in Welly - have I got one?)

You're the brave one! Are you going to post pics of that belly button for us? I've thought about it
a few times, but not much point, even at my goal weight my belly wouldn't be worth showing off!
Maybe I'll add another set to my ears!

Now I really have to get with the program and get a belly that's truly worthy of showing off.

What a great motivator🙂

I had a tattoo done on my upper arm a few months ago and that was great movation to get fit enough
to make it look good.

Make sure you look after it. Theres info at rec.art.bodyarts on how to care for piercings properly.
Beware though they are about as friendly as the folk on misc.fitness.weights 🙁

What a great motivator🙂

I'm hoping it will be. I've been wanting it done for years but I figured there was no point while I
was obese.

Cool. What's the tattoo of? That's next on my list, but it'll probably be years, if ever. I did
enquire about price yesterday though, so maybe one day I'll get up the courage ;-)

Thanks Ray. I've been to heaps of websites looking for tips and info, so I think I'm sorted for now.
I can also go back to the piercer and ask for advice whenever I feel the need.

Nah, it didn't hurt much at all. No worse than blood tests.

When I can get my hubby to take pics I'll get him to put them up on my website. Hopefully he'll take
them today, no saying when he'll get around to posting them though.

My belly will never really be worthy of showing off, but I don't care. I did it for myself really.
And even now, it doesn't look too bad in hipsters.

I was originally going to wait until I got to goal, but I decided it would make better motivation as
a done deal than it would as a reward. Besides, I did it for my own enjoyment so I don't really care
that my belly's not that flash to look at.

I guess it comes down to the same thing we say about eating, you must do
what works for you, and I just decided motivation is the same thing, Lee,
really cringing at Ray

You look great and I love the dragon! If you want to see a picture of one of the tattoos it's on

Wow, you're gorgeous. I love your back tattoo, very cool. My daughter really likes your eyebrow
ring, she says she wants me to have lots of rings, although she's telling me now that 3 is
lots...lol... I don't know if my hubby will be keen on any more piercings, so I'll go for the
tattoo next ;-)

I thought about doing a belly button piercing, because I have this bit of numb skin above my navel
resulting from the twin pregnancy, but was told that was not the "right" place! <G>

I do have a tattoo on my right wrist - more around my forearm, really, but just above my wrist. I'm
seriously considering another tattoo once I reach goal, but I want to see how my skin lays then!

It's a celtic band. Looks far better now than it did when I got it done.

If you can get a belly button pierce, a tattoo will be easy. Go for it🙂

The last time I got blood tests was the best time in about a hundred or so
blood draws, it was only a thirty minute process and they only used one
gauss pad to stop the bleeding and the bruise was only the size of a us
fifty cent peice. And I thanked the guy for not being so brutal, Lee,
wanting no extra holes
