    License weight started at 15 lbs under my real weight.
    When I got it renewed last week, I kept it the same...but it's only 2lbs difference now :0)
    Hopefully real weight will be under the license weight soon!

    Then: I left the spot blank back in high school, so my teacher put 140, boy was I happy lol I didn't have a scale at the time so I had no idea, but as a typical teen, I felt HUGE when I really wasn't.. It remained that way until my last renewal (I didn't get my license til I was 19 or 20 bc I never needed it lol

    Now: its at my goal weight 165 lol... even tho I'm 54 pounds over that atm. I figure if I can have 140 for years, I can be a LITTLE more honest right???

    lol :bigsmile:

    Is my state (PA) the only weird one that doesn't have weight on there? haha

    Nope, MA doesn't either.

    Lol....good question! Many moons ago the 145lbs was accurate. I felt it would be such an inconvienence to have it changed. :wink: Now I am 11 pounds away from that being accurate. :laugh:

    Oh that's motivating! I never thought of that. :) Mine is accurate for 8th grade...considering I"m 33, that's a bit off. BUT, it's very close to my goal! Or..at least I thought it was; I just checked and it's no longer printed on the card! Wonder when that happened? Anyway, it's 55 lb away, which feels very doable!

    WOW, I just checked mine. I guess I was "honest" three years ago when I renewed it, because I am now 88 pounds under my stated weight! I still have a year left before renewing it, so I should definitely be at my goal weight and that would be exactly half of what is on the license currently. Woo Woo

    Just renewed mine in march and I put the accurate weight of 158. Now I'm 10lbs below that but not going to renew till I'm at 120

    Mine says 140, which I was about three years ago when I renewed it. I'm about 134 (gained 7 in the last year) now...so it's not too far off. I'd rather be 125 though :)

    I always put mine at 10-20 lbs under my weight, but now I am 3 pounds under the weight on mine! YAY! :D

    I weigh 66 pounds more than what it says, which was probably just a low guess and it probably was at least 20-40lbs higher than that, but before I started losing there was a 123lb difference.

    Thank you for the reminder. I am 25lbs lighter than my DL. But, I sure the Heck am not getting in line to change it. The stress eating alone would put me back over!

    After losing 45 pounds, I finally match my drivers license weight! In another 20 pounds or so I am getting a new one, and probably won't even lie about my weight on it :smile:

    I'll be honest my drivers license is about 30lbs lighter than I am. But I did get the drivers license when I was 18 and at the time it was the right weight. Although when i got married and changed my name I kept all the same info besides my last name lol
  • Mine is over by 14lbs...but my license does not expire until 2035 so who knows by then???

    WHAT?! How?

    Mine is way off. It was right when I got it. But when I renewed I don't remember having to say what it was then.

    I am 15 lbs from my drivers license weight, which is freaky considering I took the photo / weight when I was 16.
