OKAY! So I keep thinking...looking...for that perfect picture that shows my weight loss. The other day at dinner with friends, everyone whipped out their Drivers Licenses to compare and laugh at. I pulled mine out and added it to the pile. When it got picked up my friend's husband said "Nuh uh. Nope. Nada. Not you. Can't be, couldn't be. Where's the real one?" I was very flattered, but I realized, HEY! I've been carrying around a HORRIBLE picture of me all this time! It really does show quite a bit of weight loss! I was almost to my heaviest in this picture (Dec 2008) and the funny thing is the weight on the darn thing had ALWAYS been a lie. Now I weight less! I've lost a total of 70 pounds since this picture was taken. :o)

SO! Don't laugh too hard!

    On my military ID card my weight has been a lie for the longest time. Now the weight is correct and all I need to change is my picture and the my husband's rank since he got promoted back in June. I was just waiting until I lost the weight before I i get a new ID lol

    That is great!! I was looking at my driver's license the other day and realized that I am actually under the weight listed on my license. Woohoo!! Cause of course I listed my weight a little lighter than I really was.

    You guys are all so sweet! I think it was pretty shocking for me to see the picture now! Love hearing about your DL's and here's to proving all of them wrong (in the skinny healthy) direction! :o) :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    I'm so excited for you!

    You do look a lot younger. And I mean that in no offense because you still looked good, but in your DL pic you looked around 30. Now I feel you look about my age (I'm 21)
