For the first time in YEARS, the weight on my driver's license is not accurate because it is too HIGH. :bigsmile:

    Ok... I just looked. I am 55lb more then my DL says. I had my husband look at his and he is 24lb LESS than his. And he has lost 50lb so far.

    My weight was more than 100 lbs over for quite a while, and, of course, when ever I got it renewed I adamantly said there were no changes. Now that the weight reads 10 pounds too high I am thinking of getting a new license even though it doesn't have to be renewed for a couple years. :wink:

    That's awesome!

    So a few years ago I heard if your weight was off by more than 25 lbs on your license (or something like that) you could get a ticket. Anyhow, when I had to renew my license I asked the gal to change my weight and she looked at me like I was crazy and said she'd never had anyone ask her to increase the number before lol! Keep in mind I got my license the day I turned 16, and I was super athletic in high school. She added around 30 lbs but it's still nowhere near accurate!

    My weight isn't on my DL but a few months ago my wallet was open on the counter and my 7 yr old daughter saw it and said mommy who is that? lol I hadn't really realized how much I had changed til that moment.

    Ya know, I've been wondering about this myself - can anyone confirm if this is true?
    I am now officially 25 pounds under the weight on my license, but I have more to lose before I'm done as it were... I've lost enough that I don't look like the picture anymore though and that alone was enough to make me wonder when I should renew it. It doesn't expire for a few more years.

    LOL..that is a big win!

    Mine is 30 lbs wrong too, it's too HIGH

    (and I lied by 30 lbs when I put it on there)

    I gotta get a new pic. One that doesnt' highlight my 3 chins that I no longer have :)

    Congrats!

    Haha. I have been 220 since I was 16 on my drivers license. I am now 208. This is the first time since I was 17 that the weight has been higher.

    I love it!

    Great job! I just realized that for the first time in a very long time mine is actually the correct weight. But soon it too will be too high. Even thought it doesn't expire for a few more years, I plan on taking a new pic and putting my new weight when I reach goal.

    Thanks, guys! It has been a long, long time since my DL weight was even within 15lbs of accurate. It's a great feeling. Cheers to you all. :drinker:

    Mine is 35 pounds too high :-) I have to renew mine by the end of November and I am really hoping to hit onederland before then so my license can list a weight that doesn't start with a 2 for the first time ever :-)

    Awesome, congrats! I finally got below my weight on my license too! It's 10lbs over my actual weight. Such a good feeling!

    That's so cool! My last renewal had my weight 65 lbs too low. It is still 18 lbs too low, but I love the double takes when people look at that picture with the fat cheeks and triple chin, then look closely at the thinner me and try to make the connnection between the two. Renewal is five years away and by then I'll be able to lower it officially without lying.

    Nice job, I'm 15 pounds under the listed weight, as fat male who has never wanted to face the actual number of my weight I like that its wrong in a smaller direction now.

    I wonder how many people I fooled when it said 285 and I was closer to 340? Yeah.
