fatmac - oh my gosh I cant believe they actually said something about it. I didnt know they cared so much about it.
Wow I thought every state requires a weight but I guess not. I dont know what its good for anyway on the license. Congrats to those who are lower!!! I cant wait to be lower than mine.
I've had the same weight on my DL since I was 18, 127lbs. I actually weighed 130, but I was too embarrassed to put that, especially since my grandma was standing next to me. She still said, "You've put on weight!" right in front of the DMV chick.
I even kept it when I had to renew this last time, and I was 9 months pregnant! LOL
When I got my driver's license renewed in March '09, I put "150lbs" down. I knew it was a gross lie and that I was way over that, but I honestly didn't know exactly what I weighed. I just knew I'd much rather be 150lbs than whatever weight I actually was.
My license still says 150lbs. It's still lying. It says I'm about 25lbs heavier than what I actually am!!
When I got my first drivers license it said I was 5'3" and 135 lbs, when I was actually 5'2" and 150. When I got it renewed 5 years later I'd grown an inch and gained ten lbs, so I upped the weight... to 145.
When I renewed my license again a couple weeks ago it was pretty exciting to change the weight to 128, so for the first time in my life it's actually telling the truth.
My drivers license says 135. Which was true then at 16, and then true again Freshman year of college. Got a new license in June and tried to change the height on it to the right thing which was 5 foot 6, but they apparently didn't print it correctly. So I now read 5 foot 4 and 135 pounds. Honestly I'm 5 foot 6 and a 153 pounds.
Oh for sure! X) when I got my license, I was around 165; 15 pounds heavier than what I listed (150)...at my highest, I was 25 pounds over, and now I'm at about 162...so hopefully I can get to my DL weight and better!
I got my license a little over two years ago, when I was around 230lbs, but I put 190lbs. That's the weight I always claimed to be, because I didn't want to lie too much, but I also didn't want to admit to being over 200lbs. It's still a liar, though, I am clearly not 190lbs at the moment.
My first DL at 16 said 172, a number totally picked at random...no clue what I weighed, but easily 190 if not 200+. For awhile, getting down to that weight was my goal, but when I lost it and had to get a new one, I decided to be (mostly) honest and put 183 when I was about 187 even though I was tempted to put 150 or 160. Now I'm close to 20lbs less than that, so its a lie all over again. I'll have to renew in 2012 and I can't wait to give my then current/goal weight and keep myself there!
I don't know Lil'. FL is another state that doesn't have weight listed on the DL as far as I see. But my height's a lie. I'm listed as being 5'10" when my doc has me at 5'11". I thought I was shorter by an inch .
I can't wait to renew because my face sure doesn't match any more!
Think I had it done in the 260s.

I moved to a state that requires weight a few years ago. I was not thrilled. When I got the first ID I put down 170. I was probably closer to 185. Shortly after that I got pretty healthy and went down to 170. I also remember commenting to my husband that my DL was actually correct now. Well that was before I went up to 198. Now it is just 10 lbs off.
TN doesn't list weight. I put 204 on my GA learners permit when I was 15, it was true at the time but not for long. They did not give me the option to change my weight when I got updated licenses at 16, 18 and 21.
