I was stopped by a cop today and I was a little scared because I was at work, I drive a bobtail truck and if I get three tickets in three years Im gone :/ So he asked me for my I.D. and looks at me and said, " Hell, you lost a lot of weight!" I said yep 79 pounds by using MFP! He let me go = )

The even funnier part is I always thought I looked good in that pic, its about ten plus years old.

    Nice! I was almost prevented from going through security at an airport once because I've lost so much weight, the security guard didn't believe that the license was mine! She stood there for a solid five minutes looking back and forth from my license to me! I had no idea if I should say something or not lol (I didn't). it is nice to be barely recognized, but scary when you have that realization that they might not believe you!!

    Right?! A part of me was thrilled that I look so different from how I looked back then that I'm almost unrecognizable, but at the same time, I was *terrified* that they weren't going to let me on the plane! LOL
