    After many years,,,at least 15, maybe even 20, it's still inaccurate but now I weigh LESS than what it says! I had it at 150 when I was up to 179.. now I'm 144 and it still says 150. Oh happyyyy day!

    Mine is 84 pounds off, but when I got my license it 30 pounds off. I'm getting closer and closer to it every week though. :)

    I was thinking about this a few weeks ago. AT the beginning of this year, mine license was 62 pounds less than what I atually weighed. I didn't make up the number on this license but just never changed it over the years during renewel times. I am happy to say that it is only 16 pounds less than what I weigh today. Can't wait until I renew next April and can have then drastically lower it at the BMV (or at least I hope:)

    I'm about 50 pounds lighter than the weight on my license. I just don't have the fortitude to brave the DMV to get it changed.

    I did get pulled over once a few months ago and the officer looked back and forth a few times between the license and me. I probably should get a new one. When I started out, the weight on my license was about 60 pounds less than I actually weighed.

    Well, my driver's license is from high school so I'm pretty sure it says about 135? I gained a bit of weight in college, but I'm down to somewhere between 125-130 now. So it's still close, but I never got that heavy, only up to about 145.

    Mine isn't close at all anymore...but I don't get a new one for another year so hopefully I can be well under the weight that's actually on there:)

    My drivers license says 170 pounds... and according to my scale this morning, I'm 131.4, so it's off by about 39 pounds!

    I haven't changed the weight info on my DL since... I don't know when! (Definately wasn't gonna change it when I was pregnant!) I realized a few months ago that I was down to my DL weight and was super excited. Now I am about 10 lbs under and my reward is to go get a new DL pic with my new info!!

    Mine says 180, I weigh 200, so just 20 pounds off, not too bad. I can't wait til I get below 180 and then can tell them to change it when I renew mine in 2014 :)

    I was 7 months pregnant with twins when I got mine, so they told me to guess my average weight while not pregnant.....I am about 10lbs off now (3 months post partum) and hope to be UNDER soon :)

    I haven't changed it since I first got it - I keep forgetting when I renew - so it still says 155 (my weight when I was 16).

    Bwahahahaha!!!!! My weight is the same on my license as it was when I got my first license at 16. I guess it should read "goal weight" and not "weight".:laugh:

    In Virginia they don't put that on your license anymore. They must've figured, no one tells the truth about it so why bother? LOL. :laugh:
  • The weight on mine said 118 from the time I got my permit at age 15 until two years ago, when I finally updated it to 220.... and that was fudged by at least 20 lbs. =) However, because of this thread, I just realized I am now UNDER the weight listed!! Whooooo!

    At the moment, I'd say I'm about 15-20 lbs over what my license says. I checked when I saw this thread and thought, "Holy hell, when was I 225 lbs?!?"

    No where even close to my real weight, at one point I was about 90lbs heavier that what it says! I didn't weigh myself as a kid and I don't even think we had a scale in the house so I'm not so confident that 16 year old me even weighed what it says. I'm 6' tall and my license says 180. 3 licenses later and no one has said anything about it! It's my current goal weight. I can't wait for the day I actually weigh what it says on there (45 more lbs to go until I get there)!

    They dont put weight on your license in TN! :D
  • I'm pretty sure they don't put the weight on ours in NC.
  • I was dumbfounded when I found out other states put weights on licenses.

    Lack of weight on licenses in PA is one of the few reasons I say it's a good state.
