I hate my drivers license picture....I get double takes when someone checks it and random people asking how much weight I lost and how I did it. I am planning to go in and get a new photo and license and I am wondering how many of you are honest about the weight on your license or did you take off a few extra pounds and put that as your weight????

I redid my license the day before surgery and SO lied on the weight. I was 210 the day the pic was taken but I put I was 150, like you couldnt tell but it was wishful thinking.

My high was 264 but my license never said more than 220. My very round face and lack of actual neck made it clear I was dreaming.

My weight said 225.....I was actually 225....I'd rather people look at it and say..."THere is NO WAY you are that heavy" rather than look at it and be like "Really!?!?  Really?!?  Come on' now....." =)

Though at the rate I'm loosing weight...I wouldn't even get a double take right now.

Im in PA.  Our licenses dont have our weight on them.  If they did, I would have down right lied as a pre-op  lol   but I would be honest at the weight Im at now.   Cindy

Tennessee doesn't list weight on your DL either but in states where it did, I maintained that I weighed 180 regardless of how high I got and I got pretty big.

Mine said 180 when I weighted 245.  Then this last Nov. I had to get it renewed and had them put 150 on it when I was at probably 175.  And today I weight 147, so it will be wrong for the next four years I guess.

Someone once said that if they had a scale at the DMV there would be a lot of women driving without a license.
I actually weigh exactly what my license says. I didn't weigh that when I got it though. I was at least 20 to 30 lbs heavier but I knew that someday I would lose the weight
