Default Drivers License Weight by Christmas!
I'm setting a mini-goal for myself! I want to get to my Drivers License weight by Christmas! I moved to a new state and had to get my drivers license a few weeks ago. I couldn't bring myself to tell the lady I weight 230lbs So I told her 210, which was almost as hard. Actually, its part of what motivated me to start on this calorie counting journey!

Anyway...3 weeks into this I've lost 10 lbs, down to 217. Seven more pounds to go by Christmas! Not going to be easy for me... but I really want to get there!

Lol, that's a good goal. But not for me... Hah. My license has always said 175, and that's where it will stay... Till I'm under that.

And, looking back to when I was 16, I bet I weighed less but was so paranoid to weigh myself, I had no idea. I made it up.

GOOD LUCK!!

ETA: My birthday is on 12/11, so there is NO WAY I'll be there soon enough to renew my DL. LOL.

I Just checked - mine said 200lbs (and I'm sure I was more than that when I got it!). So, I passed that milestone! Awesome!

Pennsylvania doesn't require weight, either, thankfully!

That's been one of my goals too! I'm 12 pounds away from what my DL says. I remember filling out the form and thinking "Look, you're going to have to pick a reasonable number... No one is going to believe you still weigh 180!" So I picked 230 - because it was still ridiculously lower than what I weighed at the time. Now I'm almost there! YAY! Congrats to you - I know you'll make it by the end of the year.

Im in Oklahoma. I had to TELL the lady, no writing it on a form . Thank goodness there was no one else in there. But...it did inspire me to lose the weight!
Good luck to everyone else!
