    LOL! I totally lied about mine but now I'm actually under what it says by 5 pounds. :)
    Oooh, now that I think of it, that's a good way to set a goal! By the time it expires next April. I should be at goal and will be happy to get that new picture taken and update the info!

    Can't believe you have to put your weight on your driving licence!!! I have never heard of that here in the UK
  • I did! I was a little over 200 and I put down 190. excited to finally be getting close to that number again!! lol
  • They don't put weight on them here in Kentucky. We put eye color and height but they stopped asking weight many years ago (Thanks goodness!)

    At the time I got my license, I was only about 5lbs off of my actual weight, but then I got pregnant, and postpartum I was over 30lbs heavier than what it was. Now I'm back down to my original weight, though, so I don't feel badly about not changing it when I renewed my license in February.

    :laugh: I have in the past, but the last time, I just wrote the number down. I'm almost 50. What do I care if the person at MVB knows my real weight? It's not like I'm hiding it. :wink:

    I didn't lie, so my drivers license says 234. So at the time it was true, but now i'm 34 lbs under. Yayyy! I did lie on my military id though, but im now 11 lbs under that.

    I told the truth on my license but lied on my military ID. I was 210 at the time and told them 190... this time i renewed it, they were going to leave that and I had her redo the WHOLE thing because I wanted to proudly put 155 and NOT lie hahaha

    I started out 15 lbs over my License weight and now have fell almost 30 lbs below. I am looked at funny when going to a bar or club where they do not know me due to my weight loss. It is pretty ridiculous when they spend over a minute verifying that my ID is not counterfeit!!!

    I didn't lie, but I did gain after I got it - I am almost back down that weight, though. At the end of this year, I can't wait to renew and put a lower weight on it.

    I think the better question to ask is "Who didn't lie about their weight on their driver's license?" :laugh:

    We have our licenses here in Arizona until we're 65 years old. My picture is from when I was about 30, which was quite awhile ago. I might have "underguessed" my weight by about 5 pounds, but I was in damn good shape, then, so it now it's really off.
