Driver's License Weight

CherylP67

Congrats!

Me too! My license also says 150, even when I was over 200. I'm now 151.

The weight is not on the Ontario licence I wouldn't lie about it anyway - this is an important legal document.

i need to lose about 20 more pounds before mine is telling the truth lol

mrsamanda86

With my old one I always kept it at 120, which was a total lie about a year after I had gotten it taken LOL Now my new license doesn't have a weight on it at all. My military ID was taken when I was about 9 months pregnant, and I looked AWFUL... I was definitely not a glowing beautiful pregnant woman :laugh: Will be getting a new one in the next month or so and can't wait to never have to show that picture again!!

We don`t have our weight on our license, here, in Quebec..... Seems odd to me........

In my state, weight isn't listed on the driver's license, but the picture speaks for itself. I was about 100 lbs heavier in my license photo and were it not for the glasses, you wouldn't even know it was the same person!

Sorry this may be a dumb question... But why the hell does your driving licence have your weight on?! (I'm from the UK -the only thing on mine is a horrendous picture! Ha)

I assume as a way to identify you. I'm from Michigan tho & my weight isn't listed.

I suppose we do things different here in Texas. No weight on our ID's just height and eye color.

My DL weight is listed as 250 and the pic is when I was my all time fattest of 295. I now enjoy handing my DL to people to watch their expressions. I swear I lost all my weight from my face alone.

I told the truth on my DL which was 260 at the time ... only one time has the TSA commented on it .... he looked at my license ...looked at me and said "get it changed, it doesn"t even look like you " I told him I would change it when I get to my goal and he said it should be ok then he said 'good job" ( I fly every 3 weeks for work.)

Ah, vanity!
I'm the sort of person who has carefully done her hair and make-up in preparation
for taking a photo ID. After all, the picture is in use for at least 5 years.
The color of my shirt is flattering; the face is almost perfectly round, but it's not scary.
As one can see in my MFP ID, my face is a much different shape now,
and I have a neck. My current state ID card says I weigh 290,
which was a 20-pound fudge a few years back.
I need a new ID because I moved, but I think I'll wait another 30 pounds.

I cannot wait to get to my driver's license weight!!!! Woo hoo!! 45 more pounds.

BeckyGee84

I had to look at my driver's license to see what number I put on it! Lol. In 2009 I said I was 120, I was probably 130. Now I'm 135. When I get down to 125 again I won't lie next time

Lol this is great and I didn't even think about my DL until now. Mine is from 3 years ago when I turned 21 and near my highest weight(about 275, highest 294) and I said I was 220 lol. I now actually weigh 223 so only 3 pounds away. I'll be turning 25 in June and will have to renew my DL. I hope to be more honest next time haha. Hearing how much we all lie makes me realize I should stop judging celebrities talking about their weight. 150 pound Kim Kardashian saying she's 110 or at one time 300 pound Kirstie Alley saying she "ballooned up" to 230 lol. I don't blame them anymore. Anyway congrats original poster and others on the weight loss!

My driver's license says I weight 230 pounds, which I did and I look like a big oompa loompa in my picture. Unfortunately, my license does not expire until 2016. Sometimes, I wonder when I buy wine and they card me and look at my picture, if the cashier thinks I'm someone else, since I now weigh 160 pounds lol!

janetteluparia

I have to explain to airport security that I dont look the same as my license or passport due to the 38 pound loss! LOL it really is different!!

seltzermint555

That is so funny! I was just thinking about this! I lied when I got my license 6 months ago and put it 20 lbs less than I really was. Now I weigh 10 less than it says, and I want to "lose" it so I can get a new picture taken! Maybe I'll lie about my weight again, and put my goal weight down - who knows!

My DL photo was retaken in 2012 when I was at 270 lb...not my HW so I was fine with that, but then a couple of months ago I got a new license with my married name and they wouldn't retake the photo, grrrr. I never really carried weight in my face but there is still a noticeable difference from then to now (down 66 lb)

Luckily my DL expires in Nov so hopefully by then I'll be at my goal weight! (I have a "high" goal seen in my ticker so it's possible I'll be below that)

This is actually my next big goal!!! 10/11 more pounds and I will match my driver's license weight and not void the warranty on my new exercise trampoline :P I will say though...in my defense...I'm pretty sure the last couple times I went to the DMV, they didn't ask me WHAT my weight was but rather "Do you want to keep what your weight says as the same?" Very nice phrasing sir/ma'am, I'll take it! Though I think I might pay the $10 to get a new license/picture when I hit 50 lbs or so, that is one large woman on there!

Mine says 120, which was accurate. I weigh more than that, now. As for hair? I look like a drowned rat, I had no idea I was expected to take a new picture
