I was just wondering.....How far off is the weight on your driver's license? My current weight is 247 and my driver's license says 220.... :wink:

    mine says 250 and I am around 230 right now.....I know who has it too high right?

    The other day I had to show it at a new dr's office and she said are you sure this is you? I said I know right? I should just pay the money and get a new one taken, lmao.

    Our DL doesn't have our weight on it. That's a good thing too!

    I was 150, put 140 on my DL because I thought that's as low as I *might* be able to go, and now I'm 119, lol!

    Mine said 150 forever even when I was closer to 200. Finally when I was well over 200 I upped it to 175... stupid. Two times ago when I had to renew it I was closer to 140 when it said 175. That was a great feeling to change that. Now, I'm not so sure they list our weights on our Iowa driver's license. hmmmm

    Mine says 145. I weigh 192. I think I was 165 when I got it.

    I think its a cheek to ask for your weight on the driving licence. Do you have to keep returning it for an update as you lose or gain weight? I bet it it was a very thin bureaucrat who added that to the rules.

    Next year I have to renew my licence. I will have lost 50#, be 50yrs old. I'm about 10# off of that now! I had a baby not long before getting licence, so I really thought I'd lose weight. I guess not!! 10 years old is how old that baby is! It's taking me this long! But I'm doing it!

    This is funny. I actually had to renew mine in December and started my diet in Jan. I said I want to be the weight that my license says.

    I was 181, and it said 140. I am now 155, so I am getting closer. :smile:

    Mine said 150 lbs when I weighed 260 lol. But when I updated it in Jan I put 180 and I'm now at 189. I know those DMV people had to be thinking I was crazy when I put 150 but I was just in denile lol!

    My previous license said I was 280 and I was down to 210. This license says I'm 230 and my last weigh in was 194. I'm withering away!

    For the record, mine is now less!:drinker:

    My drivers license says I am 130 I am currently 159. I was around 135 when I got it. It is one of my goals to be back down to that.

    In Canada, they don't ask or write a weight number. Thank goodness, I don't think I would want everyone to know how much I weigh! Why do you need weight on a driver's license? I understand the height but everyone wears their weight differently. But I will be hotter on my driver's licence picture when I renew it in October! :)

    I'm about 40lbs lighter than my drivers license says I am.
