That moment when someone u haven't seen in 5 months sees u but walks past u bcuz they don't recognize you.

That's what I encountered today at work. That was one of my best NSV's so far. I'm 8 months post op and 35 away from goal. This NSV just motivated me more than ever. To hit my goal by November. My Bandiversary.

I realized today I weigh less than what my drivers license says I do, which was a "wishful thinking" number too start with! Thank goodness they dont call you on it! I always figure DMV & police must look at the weights people have down for themselves & laugh. I think when I hit goal Im going to insist on a new license with my real weight & a new pic & then find reasons to get pulled over just so I can show it off ~lol.

Omgoodness...you have me laughing here....you go girl !

My driver's license says 158 and the picture was taken 3 days before my surgery weighing in at 235!! You wouldn't even recognize me in the pic, I tell you bad angles at the DMV!!! My friends or I should say my 11 year old girl's friends like to look at it for a good laugh!! Told myself I would get a new one when I reached my goal and could be honest about the weight. Time to get myself in there for a new picture!

It did make for a good post on facebook when I wrote I finally weighed what my driver's license said!

This one may be nasty, but I used the potty on a high stool and was able to reach around without throwing out my back.
