I just realized that I'm almost down to the weight on my driver's license. What am I going to do when I get lighter than that?


Hooray....it's been years.


How about you guys? How does your driver's license weight compare to your real weight?

    I am 15 pounds lighter. I was actually about 10 pounds heavier than the weight I put down when I got it.

    mine was accurate when it renewed the first two times. Last time it renewed it was 10lb off, when I started here it was 30lb off, now it's about 10lb over where I am. See my sig, it was a mini-goal for it to be accurate. LOL!

    Mine is accurate if this was 1996. Of course, I have used that weight every time I renew it. At the moment it's off by about 32 lbs. Which is much better than earlier this year when it was off a whopping 92 lbs!

    Mine says 180 because that is what I weighed when I renewed it. I am now 189, was up to 222 for a long time though.

    You're all doing great! I wonder if they stopped putting weight on driver's licenses because they know that we....uh fib a little. But no more, will I fib.

    Oh my gosh! I didn't even think about my driver's license weight and now it's only 5 pounds off, from being about 40 pounds off at my highest weight. By the time I'm done, I'll be 5 pounds or a little more under, unbelievable... I can't wait to renew it and make sure to tell them they need to change it!

    We've never had it in Michigan..... I don't think. Not in the 10 years I've been driving.

    When I got my license, I...ummm....fudged it a bit. ...ok by a lot. I weighed 206lbs, but wrote down 180. Denial much? Now I'm 5 lbs less than my recorded weight :)

    Mine is now about 50lbs too heavy. I just renewed it at the beginning of this year too (21st birthday!) so I won't get a new one for a while unless I change it when I move.

    I'm so glad our weight isn't on our licence in Australia. I don't want anyone to know that number!

    I just pulled mine out to check and I guess Iowa doesn't have weight on there anymore. GOOD!
