Just booked my first cruise. Going the Saturday before Christmas and coming back the Saturday after. I've been doing a lot of traveling the last few years but I've never been on a cruise. Excited as hell.

Welcome to LST. Digging that pumpkin with smoke

Point

Now this my friend is very sweet. Kudos bro.

Looking Nice!!!! Welcome to the board.

Welcome to LST

That's my problem. Even though I lost 128 Pounds, my torso is what is still kind of jacked up. Trying to beat it with more chest exercises, sit-ups, leg raises. It's rough as hell. Me personally, I don't want anything on my torso at least until I feel comfortable going shirtless in public.

When will this be and what are you getting?

Hello there and welcome. Where are you from?

At work, my boss plays K-Rock via internet or my co-worker will play an 80s or 90s mix from last.fm When I'm alone, I listen to the Jazz Station 88.3 FM WBGO.

I wouldn't get all crazy over it bro. It's not a big glob of crap you see from 10 feet away. Take your time, do some research and see who is a great artist. if they can rework it, then go for it.

I agree with this solution along with encouraging not to just only look at tattoos. Encourage your cousin to check out different mediums of art as a form of inspiration or idea hunting.

Agreed

Let's see some pics

Having to take graduate summer courses just to try and finish up quicker. I work at a bank and I have a feeling within the next 3 years we are going to be sold. So with that, i'm trying to finish up graduate school within the next 2 years. This is my 3rd class in. 11 left.

Welcome to LST. Where are you from?

I know this is an old thread but....... I took off the first two weeks after I got my tattoo on my leg. When I did go back, i made sure to lotion (or whatever you use to heal tattoo) my tattoo before working out. It worked out fine for me.

Cool man. Thanks for the heads up on these.

Hey bro, my friend goes to see Rob Ryan every so often. November 2014 I'm going to see Steve Wimmer in Delaware. October 2015 I'm going to see Rich Pineda in Cali. Another reason why I chose that particular greeting :D

A few weeks back I managed to get an appointment with Steve Wimmer in November. I think he was booked until February but a cancellation came through and I took it. Going to get Wolverine #1 on my outer left thigh. I think it will come out great, especially since my skin is paper white.

Welcome. I hope to visit down under one day. I've been wanting to go for a few years now but I keep pushing back my plans to visit. I'd also like to get some work done by Todd Bailey.

It's on my right thigh above my knee. PMA for Positive Mental Attitude. Took a lot PMA to finish college last year with 2 college degrees and on my crazy diet/work outs.

Where from New Jersey you from bro?

Well not really from Asbury Park, I just felt it fits with the postcard. haha My name is John and I'm from Hudson County, New Jersey. A very good friend of mine suggested checking this site out so I've lurked it for a few months and decided to join. At 31 years old, I just got my first tattoo this past May. Though I've been into art for years, tattoos have been something I've been into since my teens. I was always hesitant because I didn't want to live with that "regretful" tattoo mixed with not being able to afford a good artist. Finally as i began my diet at 360 pounds, I kept saying to myself I'm going to get a tattoo when I lost 25 pounds. I got past 25 pounds then bumped it up to 50 pounds. Past that mark then 100 pounds. Past that and finally said when i lost 125 pounds I'm going to get a tattoo. FINALLY I got up to 128 pounds lost (currently weighing in at 232 pounds). I decided that's it I'm doing it. I began booking appointments with specific artists that I have either followed or researched. I have appointments this November 2014 and October of 2015. BUT Being a fan of Luke Wessman's artwork and life story since about July of 2013. I needed him to do my first tattoo. Went to Wooster Street Social Club and he took me as a walk-in. Having his talent, great back story and awesome conversation only fueled the fire of getting more tattoos that mark specific parts of my life.
