    It's weird how you guys have your weight written on your license. I don't think we do in Australia

    Some States/Provinces require you to have height/weight/eye color/Hair Color


    My Driver License weight: 258lbs

    I am proud to say that is VERY VERY Inaccurate!

    I have since lost 58 more Lbs and sitting at an even 200lbs :)

    Nope, we don't.
    I also don't see the point... oh it looks like you in your license but just step onto this scale over here for me i need to really make sure. oh you lost/gained weight? can't be you then

    My drivers license isn't the least accurate on account of me being 16 with atrociously greasy hair, spots, no glasses and an expression that is always translated as "come at me; I'll cut you". Oh, and I've not lived at the address for 5 years...

    But I'm English, so my weight's not one of the myriad trivia they ask for. Yay?!

    Interesting. Here in Australia we dont put our weight on drivers licenses. The photo on my drivers license was taken before I lost 80 lbs so you can imagine the double takes I get when having to prove my identity....

    No driver's license here, but to contribute...

    When I had to renew my license I was 5 month pregnant with my second. So I put down the weight I wanted to be after having him. Since then I have had another kid and I'm currently 2 pounds below the weight stated on my license.

    In Canada it's rude to ask someone's weight, so we only have height on ours! LOL

    I haven't gotten a new license in like 5 years. It says I weigh 120! Yeah right. Off by almost 30 lbs I don't know if I will ever (or want to be) that tiny again.

    Well the weight on my license is a lot lower than I am now. I fibbed a lot. And never changed it
    There is a 60lbs difference
    But before I started this journey there was a 114lb difference.

    I'm 5 pounds below my driver's license weight now : )

    And here it does not show up on the license but you have to tell them your weight when you go in to renew it.

    I just looked on my Ohio license and it says 320(I lied and said I was lighter than I was at the time). I'm now at 280 so that's a 40 pound diff. My license expires this year so I'm hoping to make that difference 60 at least.

    My driver's licence doesn't have a weight on it...

    Mine either! I was starting to think I was the only one. Height is accurate though :bigsmile:

    My weight on my license is my goal weight. It was my weight when I got my license....originally...when I was 16. :blushing: It's been years (and years) since I was that weight. I was within 5 pounds 7 years ago when I got married. I'm within 9 pounds now. I'll just leave it. I'm doubting I'll ever get BELOW that weight.

    I'm finally lower than my license weight. I lied last November but I don't remember by how much.

    MiNE DOESN'T HAVE A WEIGHT ON IT.

    HOWEVER, MY PERMIT SAID 140(I WEIGHED 145), MY FIRST LICENSE SAID 145(I WEIGHED 150) AND MY NEXT ONE SAID 160(I WEIGHED 168). THIS WAS ALL OVER ABOUT 8 YEARS.

    NOW THAT OUR STATE DOESNT HAVE THAT ON THE LICENSE MY GOAL IS TO JUST GET DOWN TO 150.

    In Wyoming, they don't actually list your weight on there - they give you a "Weight Class" (A, B, C, D, etc.). I think it's based on 25 or 50 pound increments. So honestly, I have no idea. I think I'm in weight class "D", but that's from like 4 years ago so I have no idea what I weighed then.

    My military ID, on the other hand, says I weigh 190. At the time I had it issued (18 months ago), I actually weighed about 210. Now, I weigh 193 so it's pretty accurate. I think it's fantastic that my "actual" weight matches my :"fibbed" weight now!

    my DL says 190--I was closer to 200 at the time. I am now 155. So when I have to show my license, sometimes I get double takes. It's fun LOL!

    Mine has the weight i wrote down when i was getting my permit in HS, 17 years ago! lol by the time i got my license i weighed 117 though, not the 135 i had writen down. In November, it was WAY off, as i was almost 200lbs. Today, its 13lbs or so less than I currently weigh. I am getting there! :)
