Question Drivers License Weight

I was just wondering how many of you out there fibbed on your drivers license in regards to weight... I sure did. Ever since I was 16 I've been listing my weight as 140 and if anyone asks that is what I stick to! But in reality I was never 140 at the age of 16 or beyond! I cant wait to actually be my drivers license weight!!

I didn't lie on my driver's license but I was heavier than I am now but only by a few pounds. I had given birth that year so that is why my weight was higher.

My state ID (visually impaired, can't drive) says 140 when I was at least 20 pounds heavier at that point.

I've never lived in a state that requires people to provide their weight for a driver's license. I'm glad!

Oh man. When I got my permit at age 15, I put 115 which was not even close to being true. (I was probably somewhere around 150-155, but barely weighed myself in high school). That weight stuck until I moved to another state at age 24, when I applied for a new license and the DMV attendant asked me what my "current" weight was because "it's clearly changed."

So I put 140, which was still 40 pounds too little but I'm working toward it!

The last time I got my license renewed, I weighed 269...I told them 230. That was kinda my rock bottom. I started WW a few days later. I can't wait to get a new license with my real weight on it for once.

No weight on the licences in MA, thank goodness.

I put that I was 5'2 and 145 on my first ever DL. The weight was def. too low then, but the height was accurate. Since then I have always forgotten to change it. The weight wasn't a huge issue, I maintained in the 140s for a couple of years, but I'm now 5'4 and a half. That, coupled with my weight gain in the last two years means that I am always asked for second and third forms of IDs at clubs/certain bars. Now that my weight is semi-accurate and I'm 24 (obviously old enough to drink) I'm hoping that they'll stop asking for extra ID.

This made me realize that I actually am a couple lbs LOWER than the weight on my drivers license! Which has ALWAYS been wrong!
I think when I got it renewed about a year and a half ago I had them add 10 pounds to it (which was still about 50 pounds lower than my actual weight) ... but NOW I'm under it! Wow! Amazing haha.

I've never lied on my DMV forms. When I applied to get my learner's permit, my mom tried to change it for me. I wasn't going to kid anyone into thinking I weighed 160lbs when I was actually 280lbs. Gah.

But, now I'm a good 20lbs below what my license says.

Ha! Great question! My DL weight changed gradually with my own weight over the years, BUT it was always like 30 pounds lower! I kept the DL just under 200 forever, but eventually caved and moved up to 230 the last time I renewed - my HW was 288lb. Small discrepency?? I'm getting close to the day I'll actually weigh what's on my DL... must be time to renew?!
