In Kentucky, we don't have weights on licenses. If I did, my weight (when I first got my license) would have been 220 cause I learned to drive when I was losing weight that first time
My old state did not have weight on the license. I was NOT happy when I moved to Colorado a few years ago and had to put it on there. Mine says 200 and even though I did get to 198 about 18 months ago, I was not even close when I actually got my license. But even though I was lying by at least 40 or 50 lbs, I couldn't make the leap to say 199, I felt too guilty to claim Onederland! lol!
When I do get to goal, I have every intention of going to the DMV and getting a new license complete with new photo. Mine expired last year, but when you renew online, they reissue with your old photo!
Mine said 185 FOREVER when I weighed 225+ and I felt guilty about that, but being asked by someone in such an uninterested, bureaucratic way can be so demeaning. I hated it! So every time after when they asked if everything was current, I just said yes. Last year was my renewal year and I must have been feeling saucy because I said 150. So, I'm still lying! They should ask - what do you want to weigh? That would be more like it and easier to give an answer. LOL
I had to renew mine on my birthday last year, I was 38 weeks pregnant. "How much do you weigh"? without batting a lash, I said, "175". She just stared at me. Don't ask me my weight or for a new picture when I'm 38 weeks pregnant. I'm already cranky!!
Mine says 300 and I'll be thrilled when I get down to that point.......several months from now! Mine renews in another 2 years, and I'm looking forward to being able to give them a weight starting with a 1.....and watch the guy's face when he looks up to check if the difference really has occurred.
The state I'm from originally didn't put weight on the license but my current license says 170. I was a good 50 pounds heavier at the time. Now it's only off by 20 pounds.

Mine says 199, which is actually almost right at this point!
My original license said 140. At my last renewal, I changed it to 199. Totally silly of me to bother changing it to another number that was still wildly inaccurate, but I couldn't bear to have it read 200+ (even though anyone could see that I was over 275 at the time)!
Although: I do hate my photo. I had to have my licence renewed 3 yrs ago and was so sad to lose the happy, skinny photo of my 18 y/o self and replace it with a tired, miserable looking 28 y/o photo.
When I get to goal I am renewing it with a new photo! I don't care how much it is, the DVLA can take my money if it gets rid of that truly horrible photo! And even though I don't have a car now, and probably won't have one for another 5 years. It's a pride thing, lol
