    I think I live in the only state that doesn't have your weight on your drivers license. Now, when you go to re-new it, it asks for it but it isn't on our actual licenses.

    Since I renewed mine this year -- the paperwork they have is accurate.

    Before I renewed, I had a pic of me at around 200lbs and every time I handed it to someone they didn't believe it was me.

    My high school weight of 185. I've been over 200lbs since the fall of 2006, the year after I graduated. When I last renewed my license I asked about changing my weight to be more accurate and the DMV woman told me not to bother. I hope to be back down to that weight (or lower) by the time I have to get it renewed again.

    Mine has always been 160. I was at least 15 pounds heavier than that when I first got my license, but at my heaviest I was 39 pounds above that. Now I am one pound away from not embellishing my weight. :laugh: So close!

    ... too much trouble to change it when I am sent the automatic renewal. My pic is still from 1999, with chubby cheeks (compared to now)

    Yeah.... I moved... & they didn't take a new photo? My BF is a Cop. He says that if I got pulled over with that license, they would have to investigate it & make sure it wasn't fake. My photo is a FAT pic, & my cheeks look like I just had my Wisdom Teeth removed... plump, & chipmunk. Now? Not so much! He says if I lose about 5-10lbs more, he's going to SEND me for a new photo, because it won't pass as legal ID anymore in Canada.

    It's $10 to change the photo up here in Ontario guys... it's easier than having the hassle of a photo that doesn't even LOOK like you anymore!

    Mine used to say 43 under my weight. Now it is 5 over. Last time I didn't change my weight until people stopped accepting my ID. I had lost 90lbs and some people wouldn't believe it was me so I changed it cuz it was causing issues.... I am moving in a month and will have to get a new license then. I will probably lie again on my weight, wonder if they'll let me put my goal weight.

    I'm currently under what my DL says. HOwever the picture is when I weighed MORE than what my weight says. I'm waiting till I get smaller to go pay and have a new one made.

    When i have to show my license I warn them that it looks NOTHING like me to which they are like WOW!!

    Mine too. It says I weigh 125 (I was actually 135 and lied when I turned 16 and have NEVER changed the number all these years - I'm 31 now) - in my current picture I really weigh about 160. Now I weigh 118. It's up for renewal this June! :)

    But I'm pregnant....

    So..... :laugh:

    Mine says 135. I think I was 135 when I first got my permit. I haven't changed a thing on it. I'm not either. I am changing myself to get to that. When I get under it. I will for sure fork out the money to get that changed. Mhmm. Best believe that one!

    Mine says 195. It was honest when I got it, but I gained weight shortly thereafter. Now I'm about 175 ish.

    I also had to get a replacement driver's license (mine was stolen) and I changed the weight on the fill-in sheet to the current 175, but the lady didn't change it on the ID.
    I was pissed! Hahaha.

    Currently five pounds away! I always put a lower weight in the hopes that it would motivate me to get "there." :laugh:

    Oh gosh...I totally lied on mine last July. It was at 150 (I was about 220), and I told the lady that since I had just had a baby in Feb, I was a bit above it at 165. lol....so yeah...I can't wait until I'm AT then BELOW my DL weight!
