Had just come back from maternity leave -- looked completely different than I do now. 50 lbs heavier. Can't get my photo taken again. Have had my ID expire twice but am told that the photo just gets reprinted.
In all this time, I've only ever had one federal security officer say to me "you don't look like this photograph." I showed him my driver's license and congratulated him on his perspicacity.
It's ridiculous. This is security?
Your image hasn't changed drastically enough. Friend lost 200 lbs. they made her take a new picture.
