Driver License Weight

I was amused to realize that I am now under the weight printed on my driver's license. Yes, I was guilty of lying about my weight when I renewed my license (because nobody else has ever done that, right?). I guess it doesn't matter now that I'm under. Woot!

Congrats on your accomplishment! I live in Pennsylvania...thank goodness we don't have our weights on our drivers' licenses. I guess I will never move to another state, because I don't know of many other states who also don't have weights on their licenses! LOL0

Oh gosh! This made me pull out my license too, because I was curious!
So my picture is abouuuuuuuuut 30-40ish pounds OVER the stated weight that I thought I could reasonably claim and still be somewhat within the realm of possibility.
And NOW. My picture doesn't even look like me and I'm ten pounds under my stated driver's license weight! I guess I'm not guilty weight lying anymore, hah!
It IS a good feelin', isn't it?!0 -
NC doesn't do weight on license so NC is an option. LOL That is great though! I know if we did it, I would so lie. At least a little bit.0

Very grateful my state doesn't list weight.0

My picture now looks nothing like me and I'm about 60lbs under what is listed at, 180ish (and yeah.. I wasn't truthful -- I actually weighed around 220).0

Oregon Lists weight...I decided to tell the truth the last time I renewed it and now I am about 130lbs under the weight that is listed and I no longer look like my ID and I get questioned all the time whether it is really me or not when I buy alcohol...I know it's time to get a new picture, but I just want to wait until I am a lot closer to my goal weight (51.5lbs to go!)0

Congrats.
I would love to be at my license weight as that was when I was at my lightest adult weight. (Renewal was due just before my wedding)0 -
I renewed mine just last summer and said I weighed 160 when I was really 170+. Now I'm at 136. My goal is to keep the weight off so that next renewal I won't be ashamed to put down my real weight.0

I have a NC Driver License as well... doesn't matter if you loose or gain weight with the NC photos. They make it look ugly as possible.0

I'm very grateful I live in the uk0

Texas licenses don't show your weight either, must be because they know everything is bigger in Texas!0

MS will be happy to continue any lie you wish to tell concerning your weight LOL
Mine has had the same number in that slot since 1981 :laugh:
That was a whole herd of kids ago!0 -
THat's so funny! My hubby and I were talking about yesterday how our license weights are our goals. lol. Who is truly going to raise their weight at renewal?! NO ONE!0

Tennessee doesn't list weight. Thank goodness cause I'd probably lie too.0

I do not know how some of the state troopers keep a straight face when they pull some of these folks over.
I can imagine the headline "MHP trooper's final words 'Ain't no way in H--- your weight is...'"
Thankfully, my current weight is a good 30 lbs less than what is on my DL so I think for now I'll just be and bask in the knowledge.0 -
I've been lying on my license for thirty-three years. When I renewed it last month I decided to own my weight. I changed it to my real weight. I'm very proud to say that every week, thanks to MFP, I weigh a little bit less than my license says. Now, when someone sees my license they can see the success I've had.
YEAH ME!0 -
The weight on my license is a lie. Sure I was there when I got my license ten years ago but not anymore. I'm hoping to get back down to that weight though.0

In IL they don't care you can put whatever you want :happy:0

I have 140 on mine and had that on there when they took my pic at 210 lbs LOL. They must be too scared to ask sometimes. That's now my regular stabilized weight but the pic is a fact chick that looks nothing like me. I'm too cheap to go replace it plus I kinda like keeping cards forever and ever until the expiration date for some reason LOL. Makes me feel good about myself for some reason. :P0

Yup, almost everybody lies! I have been trying to come up with a motivator for every 10-pound weight loss increment and my 40 pound motivator was going to be "I'm not lying on my Driver's License". I was within a couple of pounds when I lost my wallet, including my DL, so I had to go to the DMV and get a duplicate. The nice lady told me I could amend anything on the DL, but wouldn't get a new picture, so I put goal weight #1 on (a sixty pound loss from my top weight). I'm not quite there yet, but in another 10-12 pounds, I won't be lying on my revised DL.0
