    Driver's license weight is 200 lbs.

    I weight 192 lbs. now.

    My heaviest weight was 235 lbs.

    My driver's license doesn't have a weight on it.
    My firearms identification says I'm about 10 pounds heavier than I actually am. And I lied by 15 pounds when I got it, too.

    NOT accurate.

    I lied and said 170 lbs back when I weighed ~220-230 lbs because it used to say 150 lbs (an even bigger lie) and I thought this new weight sounded more believable.

    Now I weigh 142 lbs so it's way off again. I was pretty excited when I finally weighed less than my driver's license weight lol. When I renew my driver's license I won't lie this time. I like weighing in the 140's.

    I had to get mine renewed late last month, new picture and all. The woman asked me my weight and I told the truth, as horrified as I felt about it. I didn't notice until a day later that she had change the 2 to a 1, showing me 100 lbs less than what I said! She even repeated back to me the number and still put the wrong one down. So yeah, I'm wayyy over my DL but its just a few lbs below my goal so it will be close enough, eventually!

    in '07 when i got my most recent license, i was 190 and claimed 180. currently 160, so i'm below the weight on the license.

    in the pic on the license before that, i was nearly 270. towards the end, some retail stores almost didn't accept it as proof of age because i looked so different. that was a good feeling.

    Mine is only lighter by 2 pounds. It's a goal of mine to have my declared weight be no longer a lie

    I'm almost to the weight on my license now. When I get to goal I will go and renew them and get a new pic. It'll be nice to not have to lie about my weight.

    Whenever I get a new license and I "fib" about my weight I always expect them to say... "Say WHAT ?!! Get on this scale over here and let's check that weight !!"

    Mine says 200 lbs... so I was over by 45 lbs to start, now I am under by 35 woot woot. The pic doesn't even look like me at all, but I am too cheap to pay to have a new pic taken!

    I'm not even sure my license weight was accurate when I put it down when I was 17. Right now there's roughly 40lbs between where I am and that number. And a grand difference between the face on the thing when it was renewed in January and the face I see in the mirror now.
