Finally Stopped Lying to the DMV

I realized the other day that this is maybe the first time in my life I weigh LESS than it says on my driver's license. Who's with me?

OMG, I just realized that I'm in the same boat with you! LOL I weight a lot less than my driver's license saids. :)

That is sooooo great. I cant wait til I can do that...CONGRATS!!:)

I am glad my state doesn't require weight, saves me from telling a Lie!! Can't wait for the day when I no longer have to tell the nurse in my doctors office, to not to say my weight out loud cause I don't want my husband to hear. :huh:

Why would it have your weight on it anyway?! Weird!!! I'm in Scotland!!! My weight used to change on a daily basis!!! So would almost always be a lie if I had to put something on it!

It's for identification purposes,weight fluctuates but for most people their weight is generally stable. Suppose you were in an accident and multiple people were in the car, your ID would help them identify you. There are soooo many other scenarios where this information would be helpful.

This is a big NSV I'm hoping for! I've been thinking about it for months. I have to renew my license on my birthday this year (March 7th) and I'm 22 pounds from the weight on there now. I want to be at that weight when I renew in a few months. I'm 6 months out and have slowed to an average of 10-11 lbs/month so I'm going to be cutting it close but I'm really hoping!

I am 60 lbs lighter! I really should change it lol!

I need a new picture. I mean I REALLY need a new picture. California is really stingy about doing that too. I was walking around for 15 years with my 16 year old self on the license. The last couple times I renewed they would not take a new one.

Now the picture is of me 100 pounds heavier. I should demand a new picture and say they refused to take my identification fro my credit card purchases.

I don't ever know the guy In the pic on my license , although he is handsome in a puffy/plumpy sort of way!!!

Congrats

Me too. How awesome is that!!!

I lied to the DMV for so many years, by over 50 lbs. No one ever said a word. But, my favorite NSV is being special screened after losing all my weight. TSA did not think it was me.

Ah, the joys the the VSG. I love my sleeve and have no regrets.

Congrats!
