Shelleymb 75 Posted June 15, 2012 I had to laugh - my driver license says 197 and even though I'm nearly 300 I refuse to up it and the lady laughed at me last time. I said to her "can't I lie about this one thing" and she kept it. LoL, when I went to the DMV last the lady asked me if anything had changed and I said yes, my address, then she looked at me funny and said, "aaaanything else?" and I thought it was weird but I said, "Um, nope," she just shook her head and printed it up, when I got to my car and went to look at the picture again, i finally realized what she was trying to get at, my license said I was 150lbs.... that's how much I weighed when I was 15.

adorkbl 156 Posted June 15, 2012 I love your list! I think it is a great idea!!! I plan on making one now. I also work in law enforcement and look forward to looking better in my uniform. Plus being able to crawl, squat, and climb through crime scenes easier is a plus!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mylynn1377 93 Posted June 15, 2012 150 is my ultimate goal and I would like for once to go to a freakin class reunion. I haven't been to any because I was so ashamed of being heavy. I also want to order a sexy corset and matching underthings to wear. They do not make corsets in my size, I have already checked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kvr1977 28 Posted August 25, 2012 I love this topic, I have my own bucket list as well. I will share some with you guys. -Find knee high boots that actually fit around my legs. - buy clothes because I like them not simply because they have my size. - be comfortable in heels - wear short shorts or tight jeans - dress up for Halloween - do my own pedicures - have more energy - fit through a turnstile - bathe myself with ease - more self esteem I never realized how much I took these things for granted when I was younger and thinner. -Kelly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
