Hey DMV! I don't weigh that anymore! :D
I am finally under the weight I have kept on my driver's license for years, even though I went well above it eventually. lol
86 pounds gone!

Big time! Next goal is to have a weight on my license that starts with the #1!

Me too! I just dropped below this week. I'm wondering at what point I should get a new license. Did everyone wait until they reached their goal weight?Or did you do it sooner? I figure I'm okay for a while considering I got to 70 lbs more than I listed on my license and I'm now 5 lbs under. But I admit I'm looking forward to getting a new one with a "normal" weight at some point!

I'm going to wait until I'm at goal. I think I don't have to renew until 2016 anyway.

Some states, like Ohio, don't permit you to get a new license just because you have lost a lot of weight. I know because I tried after a State Trooper at a routine safety check gave me a hard time about not looking at all like my license! I was told that it s to prevent identity theft (although I still don't understand how that helps, since they DID take a new picture and update the weight when the license was up for renewal a year later!).
Even when I was over 300 pounds, my driver's license still said 250. When I got it changed, I was down to 148, and for the last 3 years I have weighed less than my license says!

Interesting! You'd think they would want one updated because of the whole ID thing.

Yay!! Neat feeling, isn't it?
I totally forgot about my DL weight being incorrect until this past Wednesday. I pulled it out and whoops! It says I'm 80 lbs heavier than I actually am. That had NEVER happened to me before, of course. Before surgery, it was 20 lbs lighter than I really was.
I woke up in between a memory and a dream...
