NSV...80 pounds down means I am no longer a liar

As of this morning I have lost 80 pounds. It's a great scale victory but also gave me a fun NSV. I am no longer lying on my driver's license! I don't think my driver's license has ever told the truth because even though I have increased the weight on my license over the years it was always less than I actually weighed. I'm pretty sure that was true even when I was 16. Pretty soon I will by lying again though because it will say more than I weigh. :laugh:

    YAY! That's so awesome! I recently updated mine from 180 (I was lying by 5 lbs) down to 135 (spot on!) I used to have to show a second ID because the picture looked nothing like the current me. Way to go!

    I had to go look at my drivers license... Weird, but Texas doesn't put your weight!

    But congrats to everyone that is both lying and now telling the truth!

    I was just telling my DH last week that next summer when I'm at goal (hopefully) I am going to go to DMV and get a new license. BTW I have never been truthful on a driver's license, it will be fun to tell the truth. Maybe the new photo won't look so much like a linebacker, but I'm sure it will still suck, LOL!

    haha I am totally a liar too! About 10 more pounds and I think it will be accurate. I gained about 40 pounds, but somehow my weight on my DL only went up about 5 pounds. Good for you and congratulations on your loss!

    YAY! Great Job! Mine is a fib too... last time I renewed it I was pregnant, so I just kept it at the same weight as before... which is from when I was 21 and about 25 lbs less than now. Hopefully it wont be a lie for me soon either! Congrats!
