I went to the DMV today to take care of some business and showed the teller my DL, she looked at the DL, looked at me, looked back at the DL and said "sweety we need to retake your picture, i barely can tell your the same person!" :clap2: :clap2:

So this is just a reminder, keep tabs on your photo ID pictures like passports and DL!

Great NSV--

Funny timing on this post. I just looked at my drivers license on Sunday. I am within 5 pounds of the weight I lied about on it. Also, I had a passport picture taken last year at about my heaviest. It's a crappy picture anyway, what a great excuse to get it re-taken

GrizGirl- What state are you from?? That's cruel that you have to list your weight!! I guess us Texans have it lucky!

Desi80- THAT is soo awesome! Congratulations! I know you must have felt like a million bucks to know that your hard work has definately paid off if a stranger actually says you are unrecognizable from an old photo. WOW!

I had to get a new DL when I moved a year ago. Since I was up for renewal this year, the lady said that she wouldn't take a new photo. I've had bouncers and waitresses say that it isn't really my license! Luckily they've all believed that it really is me after a little explaination...

I can't wait to get a new photo! How fun!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
