Dr Ponce de Leon Mexico VSG 4 Jun 12. I lost 57 lbs on my own before having a VSG. This is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself.

When I first looked at it, it was on my iphone so I was having trouble labeling what body part it was on much less see the turtle! Love that your artistic middle child critique --- may be truth to it but also maybe it makes it even a bit more interesting? Your hubby will get used to it :)

Awesome! The turtle does blend, but that's okay. It's a beautiful tattoo. You have so little swelling or redness, I'm amazed. So many of my friends are bright red the next day.

Congrats!
