maybe i shouldnt have gotten this tattoo

Posted by *princesspeach* on October 11, 2011 at 6:20 AM

so ive been wanting a tattoo for a while now and last month i went in to get it. it covers my whole side from the ribs to my hihps. but only the outline is done.. i feel like ive wasted so much money on this because i dont even look good in a swimsuit. i cant even show it off because ive gained so much weight. now its time to go in for my second session to start the color but i feel like i should just wait until i lose a ton of weight because it would be so embarrassing for people to see a "fat" girl getting a tattoo on her side. even then it would take me forever to lose weight because i suck at it.

Are you sure?

I mean, when you started the tattoo you were probably super psyched to be getting it done. What changed from when you started it and now? It sounds like you almost have buyer's remorse...for your tattoo.

If you did go ahead and have it finished would it be more inspiration for you to lose the weight you want to?

@ traster
i was super psyched but right after i got it i gained weight. i have to get it finished because i cant just have an outline my whole life. i still love the tattoo but just not on my body anymore. i want to lose weight but its so hard for me

I'm in the same kind of situation! I got a tattoo designed and I love it! It's going to be on my hip and go up my back but I feel like I won't show anyone until I'm thin enough. I still want to get it for me to look at though
