Oops, I voted wrong. Mine actually says way over. At one point I was about 50 lbs above what it said, now I'm about 30 pounds under. lol

Thwe weight is off by a little, but the height... I've grown a bit since then. About three inches in 5.5 months. Let's see how off it is once I get my REAL license to replace my provisional one!

Yeah it's pink now but when I got my pic taken my hair was long, curly, and just brown. Now it's really short and half pink half brown, usually worn straight. I get dumb looks when people check my ID.

No weight on MI DL, but if there was a spot, they would have to type in "lose weight fat @$$" for me

Maybe they should have a height/weight machine at BMV. They could also take your blood pressure, check your cholesterol and make you pee in a cup.

Although I tend to 'grow' a little through the winter, once it gets warm, I get more active doing stuff outdoors and I get back down to my usual weight. JR

Mine is about 25lbs off. I was a skinny 19 year old the last time I had my license updated.Now I'm a bit more filled out 29 year old.Unfortunately in that same period of time my hair color has changed from "brown" to "bald".
