  • I was trying to remember and figure out some reference for my past weights (i.e. can I remember the last time I was under 200lbs, etc) because I went many years without checking or tracking my weight. Then I remembered that I've kept the same weight listed on my driver's license since getting my first one at 16 (over 12 years ago).

    I went to my wallet and saw my weight listed as....85 kg (~187 lbs). The last time I got my license renewed I was probably over 120 kg (~260 lbs). So now I've added a mini goal of having my weight match my listed weight on my license.

    And I'm curious....does your driver's license list your true weight??
  • LOL no way!!!

    My driver's license weight is definitely my goal weight, too.
  • My driver's license says 230. I weighed 269 when I got it...now I'm 166.
    When I was 15 my learners permin said 165.
  • My first permit and then license both said 190, but even in my teens, I was in the upper 200's. Years later I said, "Yeah, I should probably up that... 230." I weighed over 280 then. That's why 230 was such an important mini-goal for me. I'm a little less than that now, but working my way down.
  • My license says 190, even though I was around 220 when I got it. Definitely not my true weight either way!
  • Ha. my license says 125, and that was all muscle. i was on cross-country and 16 years old, and in great shape!!
  • Up until last year, mine said what I put down at 16, 172lbs (and I was probably hovering around 200 at the time). When I got it renewed I decided to be relatively honest (what was I thinking?!) and put 183 which was only a couple of pounds under what I was. Now I'm 173. Should've kept lying!
  • Mine says 200, I'm almost 204 so it almost matches, but when I got it renewed 2 years ago I think that I was actually 225 or something. So yeah I lied initially on mine lol but whatever, i still wear the same size pants :-/ it sucks!
  • Mine says 120 lb......30 years ago. I am a few pounds under or over it now on a daily basis. I never thought I could get back down and maintain that weight.
  • Hah! No! Mine says 190 - even when I was 302lbs I didn't change it. Now when I get below that, I might go get it renewed :P
  • lol. mine says 180, even when i was at 217. i was too embarrassed to say my weight with the cute guy standing behind me. =/
  • Yeah, my license is definitely at my goal weight. I think it was my weight at 16, but it certainly was not when I renewed it!

    Was anyone else nervous that the DMV people would call you out on your "obviously" fake weight? I remember being so nervous about it!!
  • I said mine was 185 when I got mine renewed last summer, I weighed 205. Now it's still a lie cuz I'm down to 175
  • i was truthful about mine and put 260 or something on my permit when i got it at the time.. i was ready to punch the attendant who i saw raise her eyebrows when I said it too
  • Mine says 200... I was well over 250 at the time. Now I'm *finally* only a couple of pounds away (202 this a.m.).
