Hey folks, I'd been thinking for a long time about getting a tattoo and finally took the plunge.

I chose the Simplified Chinese letters for "transformation" because the last 7 years have been a trip in a lot of ways. I started out at 455 lbs, diabetic, and miserable. Today I'm 295 lbs, a Zumba Fitness instructor, and still a full time road warrior (systems engineer).

Sorry, not advertising - just an overly informative signature block which appears to be a little wordier than the new rules allow. Fixing it!

Thanks Lochlan! Yeah, I've gotten two more since this post. I'm uploading pictures of them shortly.
