    Mine is about 10lbs thinner than I really am *sigh* because I've gained, not because I lied :)
  • Mine says 240, though I've clocked in at 202. So far no one has noticed except for one gas station attendant. He looked at me then at the card before asking if it were me. I'm hoping he meant because of the weight loss. I'm also featured with pink and black hair, whereas I don't have that style (or color) anymore.

    I went yesterday cause I had to renew.
    I got to take a new picture, which is great because I looked awful in my old on.
    Plus I have grown 3 inches, and I have lost 25 pounds from the weight that was on it before.

    But i put my weight at 120, so that when I get to my goal weight my license will be right. Haha, but I have to get a new one again in 9 months cause I am getting married, so it's kind of irrelevant.

    I'm so happy that mine doesn't have my weight on it. Got it when I was 15 or 16 and 125 lbs... that would just be embarrassing to have on there now (I'm at 180).

    I'm 40lbs under what my drivers license states. I don't want to even talk about my picture. But, I'm gonna wait awhile to renew it. I need to get some new pants and workout clothes before that. I was jogging on the treadmill and I had to keep pulling my pants up...not cool...not cool...

    Mine has been a lie since day one of being a licensed driver. This last time I renewed I finally made it closer to the truth but it's still a lie. Hell I even lied on my ID for work. Who in their right mind is going to announce their true weight in front of peers?

    :drinker:

    I had listed 30 lbs less than I was (going by what people thought I weighed because I'm a little taller at 5'8" and "carried it well" - whatever)... anyhow, still not down to my DL weight and time for renewal by mail... sent it in and did not change a thing LOL!
  • Not even close haven't changed it since I was 16 and never had so what do you think!!!
  • Mine says 145 which is my goal weight LOL I'm 160ish at the moment!
  • My license says 200, but I was actually 278 before losing weight. I am not 25 lbs lesser now than what my license says. I havent gotten any weird looks yet....LOL...My face in the picture looks like I got stung by a bee....Hahaha!!

    I think I live in the only state that doesn't have your weight on your drivers license. Now, when you go to re-new it, it asks for it but it isn't on our actual licenses.

    Since I renewed mine this year -- the paperwork they have is accurate.

    Before I renewed, I had a pic of me at around 200lbs and every time I handed it to someone they didn't believe it was me.

    My high school weight of 185. I've been over 200lbs since the fall of 2006, the year after I graduated. When I last renewed my license I asked about changing my weight to be more accurate and the DMV woman told me not to bother. I hope to be back down to that weight (or lower) by the time I have to get it renewed again.

    Mine has always been 160. I was at least 15 pounds heavier than that when I first got my license, but at my heaviest I was 39 pounds above that. Now I am one pound away from not embellishing my weight. :laugh: So close!

    ... too much trouble to change it when I am sent the automatic renewal. My pic is still from 1999, with chubby cheeks (compared to now)

    Yeah.... I moved... & they didn't take a new photo? My BF is a Cop. He says that if I got pulled over with that license, they would have to investigate it & make sure it wasn't fake. My photo is a FAT pic, & my cheeks look like I just had my Wisdom Teeth removed... plump, & chipmunk. Now? Not so much! He says if I lose about 5-10lbs more, he's going to SEND me for a new photo, because it won't pass as legal ID anymore in Canada.

    It's $10 to change the photo up here in Ontario guys... it's easier than having the hassle of a photo that doesn't even LOOK like you anymore!

    Mine used to say 43 under my weight. Now it is 5 over. Last time I didn't change my weight until people stopped accepting my ID. I had lost 90lbs and some people wouldn't believe it was me so I changed it cuz it was causing issues.... I am moving in a month and will have to get a new license then. I will probably lie again on my weight, wonder if they'll let me put my goal weight.

    I'm currently under what my DL says. HOwever the picture is when I weighed MORE than what my weight says. I'm waiting till I get smaller to go pay and have a new one made.

    When i have to show my license I warn them that it looks NOTHING like me to which they are like WOW!!

    Mine too. It says I weigh 125 (I was actually 135 and lied when I turned 16 and have NEVER changed the number all these years - I'm 31 now) - in my current picture I really weigh about 160. Now I weigh 118. It's up for renewal this June! :)

    But I'm pregnant....

    So..... :laugh:

    Mine says 135. I think I was 135 when I first got my permit. I haven't changed a thing on it. I'm not either. I am changing myself to get to that. When I get under it. I will for sure fork out the money to get that changed. Mhmm. Best believe that one!

    Mine says 195. It was honest when I got it, but I gained weight shortly thereafter. Now I'm about 175 ish.

    I also had to get a replacement driver's license (mine was stolen) and I changed the weight on the fill-in sheet to the current 175, but the lady didn't change it on the ID.
    I was pissed! Hahaha.

    Currently five pounds away! I always put a lower weight in the hopes that it would motivate me to get "there." :laugh:

    Oh gosh...I totally lied on mine last July. It was at 150 (I was about 220), and I told the lady that since I had just had a baby in Feb, I was a bit above it at 165. lol....so yeah...I can't wait until I'm AT then BELOW my DL weight!
