Liars! Driving license weight?

mamasmaltz3

So, I have to go get my license renewed. I have steadily been losing weight since March. I don't really want to be stuck with the weight I currently am on license for the next few years. What to do?

So what states have weights on DL and which ones dont? I am from michigan and mine doesnt have weight on it...

So far from the posts, I've gathered that these are the ones that don't require weight:

North Carolina
Pennsylvania
Kentucky
Iowa
New York
New Jersey
Virginia
Texas
Florida

and now Michigan.

Massachusetts does not require weight, either.

Currently 28 pounds over the dl weight but at the time it was accurate. State issued proof that i can reach my goal! LOL

So I am totally guilty when I was 200 plus my license said 165....It now says 145 and on a good day this is not a lie!!!!!!

I am 5 lbs heavier now than my DL weight, but I think that is muscle weight as I am more muscular than when I last got my license.

Ok I feel better that I'm not the only one who's really close. I'm roughly three pounds over.

When I got my license, the weight I put was only 3 or 4 pounds less than what I actually was, and now I'm about 9 pounds more than what I put...yikes :noway: (my current goal is to get back down to that weight!)

Mine used to be 30 pounds under when I weighed 190 and got my license.

I just had it updated and I rounded it down to the nearest ten spot, being 130. It's only off by like 3 pounds so does that count as a lie?? lol

I'm 6.8lbs more than my drivers license says now, was much more. & I'm .75in taller

kmuree

Mine says 150lbs. :noway: I'm actually 185lbs right now. :embarassed:

I hadn't weighed myself in school and I got my license when I was seventeen - so in my mind, I figured, eh, same weight as when I was fourteen. Wrong! I haven't bothered to change it but it's such a lie.

I just got a new license not long ago so mine is accurate. :-)

I remember when I was pregnant and had to renew my license the worker guy at the dmv asked my weight, not wanting to say my pregnancy weight I and have it stuck on my license for the next 4 years I said 125 (my prepreggo weight) he looked up at me and said "you know there's no need to lie, now what's your weight" mortified I said loudly "I'm 6 months pregnant you *kitten*! I need to talk to your manager!!". I felt like crying, looking back I think it's a little funny though but that guy had some nerve.

Guys - who out there has the wrong weight on their driving license?

You have to put your weight on your driving license? Compulsory?

Glad I live in the UK! :bigsmile:

I know in Australia. We only have DOB, license expiry and address

HamsterNut

Uk driving license have no weight on them :-D

Why do you guys need a weight on your license? :-S

Jerodhold

It seems very silly to NOT include weight on a driver's license, as it is used for identification purposes and a small cropped photo of someone's face really fails to illustrate the entire identification - height is necessary, it only makes sense to include weight to properly illustrate someone's body type/stature. For example, it's like those Myspace angle pictures where a heavier woman takes a very misleading picture of their face, that doesn't portray their body type and their full semblance. If you are asked to identify a burglar and you have a thin man and a very heavyset man who have similar facial features, don't you think stature would assist you in the identification?

I live in Illinois - at the time I had fibbed and said I was 10 pounds lighter, but now I actually -am- the weight on my driver's license.

The hard question for me is always "hair color", having golden brown-auburn hair. :ohwell:

Blunderguff

47lbs lighter then mine.... Yikes

tbruegg

Had to look to answer truthfully I weigh 10 pounds more...

kiminikimkim

We don't have weight on our drivers licence but my height is wrong. I am 159.5cm not 158cm.

I was 158cm at the age of 16.

I guess i grew a little.

Happinessgrl

I am from the south, they know better than to ask us to put our weight on our DLs lol

crimsoncat

Ten pounds less

MaraDiaz

I'm getting closer! 155 is my DL weight, and I'm 167 and change right now. You better believe when I hit goal I'm trucking into the DMV for a new photo. I might even go nuts and wear makeup.

BrawlerBella

Pulled mine out to look, all it has is my height sex and eye color lol Texas DL

I just realized the DMV gave me an extra inch in height. I'm 4'11" they say 5' even woohoo!!

Major NSV for me was being asked for a second form of ID at the airport since my license photo was taken 90 pounds heavier than I am now. That was a great day

IslandDreamer64
