NSV - Drivers License weight



Recommended Posts

I checked my drivers license weight and I am now only 4 lbs heavier than what it says! I think this kind of qualifies as a "non-scale victory". ;)

How does everyone else stack up to their drivers license?

I said 170lbs on my license. I was probably easily 200lbs+ Today I'm wayyy under that weight. Exciting!

Mine says 260 and at the time I think I was at about 300. Now I'm 225. I want a new picture on my license. Doesn't look like me anymore.

Mine said 260 when I was 290. Now I'm 30 lbs under it-- whee!

I have no intention of changing it for a while though. Ugh, the DMV lines around here mean I'll just live with it.

Florida doesn't have a weight section. But, I agree that I need my drivers license changed as it doen't look a bit like me. Also, my Visa has my picture and it looks like someone else entirely. I had glasses( since then had laser surgery), lost about 100 lbs, and cut my hair. I have had store clerks do a double take on both the Visa and drivers license. Karen (kll724)

That is why I love PA! There is no weight on our drivers licenses. ;)

I was actually honest about my weight on my DL this time around, as I have no intention of ever being that heavy again. Haven't had surgery yet, but can't wait until the day I have to get a new one for just that reason!

Congratulations! They don't ask for weight on our driver's license. Makes sense since everybody lies anyway. Kind of like putting your eye and hair color. It's so easy to change both, why bother?

Wow I've actuaLly never heard of weight being listed on a DL. What states ask for this (because I want to make sure I never move to any of them lol)?

Wow. I am so thankful that I don't have to put my weight on my driver's license LOL.

That would be so embarassing.

I'm in Washington state, but when I lived in California they had weight listed on their license too.

I had to get mine out and look at it. It says 170 lbs from 2 years ago (when I was probably 270 at the time). The people that work at the BMV must roll their eyes and laugh every day at their job looking at those lies. Now I'm around 146-147 with 2 years to go before renewal. Boy do I need a new picture!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
