So I am officially lower than the weight on my license! Does anyone else fib when they put down their weight on their license? I put down 145 when I was really 160 when I got my license.

    luckily in nc, you don't have your weight on your license!! if we did, i'd definitely be under it, which would be awesome! :]

    You guys have to out your weight on your drivers licenses? Crazy. Glad UK doesn't do that

    Great NSV! I know I was off my at least 15 lbs when I renewed last year. I wasn't really lying, I was being hopeful :) I'm glad to say I am 36 lbs lighter than I put my license.

    I think mine has 155 or 160 on it. I think I was probably around 165 when I got my license. Now I'm about 147 so I'm less than what is on my license!

    Yeah, Ohio requires weight. I wish they didn't. To those who all don't have to put weight on license.....LUCKY!

    Not in every state. When I moved and had to get a new license, I know I looked at the person like they were crazy for asking me my weight.

    Funny, I was thinking of making my goal weight be what I "said" it was when I graduated from high school on my DL. It is a little easier just trying to get to what it really was!

    I renewed mine not long after having my daughter. I kept the weight on my license the same as it had been (145) even though, after having given birth, I was about 155. I figured no harm, no foul. I planned on losing it anyway. Plus don't all women fib their weight 5 or 10 pounds anyway? But I didn't lose. I ended up at 175 when I joined here. Now I'm down to 149 and I'm only 4 pounds from having an honest DL! Well....almost honest. I think my height is fibbed to make me an inch taller too... :laugh:

    totally fibbed :) weight and hair color seem silly to have on a license...height and eye color make more sense

    The weight on my license says 120 lbs, and it was true at the time. But that was 8 years ago and I will never be that skinny again. I was unhealthy skinny then. I'm 8 lbs over that number now, goal is to be around 5 lbs from it, so I'm almost there :-)

    I agree, I don't remember how many times I colored my hair different colors within a year. Weight can change drastically in a year too. Seems silly since we renew our license once every several years.

    I totally lie. I am currently off by about 15 pounds, that is only because I've lost over 30 pounds, so at my heaviest I was off by 45 pounds. It's none of their business anyway lol.

    I love Florida because they don't even put weight on your driver's license. Considering how much people fluctuate, it really doesn't make sense to use it as an identifier.

    Mine says 120 and I'm pretty sure that's what I weighed the last time I had it renewed. I'm only a few pounds away from it being true again! The silly thing is, in Arizona we don't have to get our licenses renewed until we turn 65. What are the odds that someone is going to weigh the same for up to 44 years?

    I've never fibbed on mine. Not because I wasn't large, I just never thought about it. LOL
    I renewed my license a year ago and it says 182lbs....I weigh 128 lbs now. haha People see my license and say I'm going to get in trouble if I ever try and buy beer. haha I swear it's me!!! :laugh:

    My license says 180 and I was definitely 235 when I took that pic bahahaha. I know it was wishful thinking, but I knew I would get to that weight soon enough and I am on my way :)

    I am with you honey! Mine says 190...I weight 377..They would seriously helicopter me off the scene of the accident. "Get this woman to the hospital QUICK! She is already starting to swell!!!"

    I asked my friends if the same question & everyone was over by 25+. I am the weight on my license, 125. I weighed that when I got it, put on about 10 lbs, but back to it. I think that’s my guide on keeping on track.
