    It's currently accurate because I just got a new one after shedding more than 100 pounds.
    At my heaviest, I lied on it by more than 60 pounds.

    My driver's license doesn't have my weight on it, but you do have to put the information down when you fill out the paperwork. I have to renew mine tomorrow (birthday is on Saturday and I'm not paying extra for it to wait til Monday!) and I will proudly put my current weight on there! No fudging!

    I will say this... when I was taken to the emergency room via ambulance last month - both paramedics commented on how I'd lost A LOT of weight since my picture was taken. And both congratulated me on the loss. Said I look like a totally different person. Feels great coming from a stranger, ya know?

    Mine says 155. I was 165 at the time and was changing it because I got married. I am now around 180. It expires NOV 2012 when I turn 21 so hopefully I'll be way under 155 by then!

    I still have my 1990 CA license and it's the same weight I am now. Just with blacker hair.

    I dotn think it is on there in texas. But if it was I am sure I would had lied about the true weight. Although I can say that a store clerk told me the other day she didnt think it was me in the picture on my licence since I had lost so much weight. Guess its time to get a new one!

    i had mine renewed at the beginning of august. i told them 135lbs, but i was more like 132 at the time. i'm now 124. just as well, though. i don't want anyone to know i'm this low.

    LMAO!!!! I totally laugh at myself whenever I have to pull it out... It says 175, I weigh 165 now, and it looks like I've lost a few more pounds than that in the picture... Yet a lot of people still don't believe I was actually 90 pounds heavier, which I will take as the kidest sort of flattery the world has ever bestowed upon me!! :) REALLY!!!

    I'm 24 now and was up to 227 (at my heaviest) when I renewed my license this year. It still has my weight on there from when I was 16 years old and first got it at 145! Oh how I will enjoy being back down to that! :)

    oh, you're so sweet. yeah, i've been going through some pretty difficult stuff the past few months. it has affected my weight as a result, but i've been eating a bit better lately. thank you for caring. :3

    I was also thinking about that last week. I am for the first time lighter than the weight on my id. I am 13 lbs lighter and at one point in time I was 15 pounds heavier. Yea to weight loss.

    i was probably 8kg heavier in my licence photo than i am now. it was after i'd had my first child, but before i'd lost weight. and it was a ridiculously hot day, and i had to line up forever to get the photo done. i looked like hell (fat hell at that).

    Not at all. I have never changed mine from when I was sixteen. They always ask has anything changed and I smile and say NO! And I guess they can't make you change it. I don't even want to tell you how much more but let's say it's over 50#.:sick:

    I'm about 15 pounds lighter than my license says (I've only lost 6 pounds on this round, but I lost about 30 last year). What a happy little lie. :)
