Finally Stopped Lying to the DMV



Recommended Posts

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?

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 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.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
