Re: Global Fat ScaleWhat is your BMI?(Original post by Airfairy)
"You have a higher BMI than 98% of females aged 15-29 in the world"
That's a load of crap. I am overweight, I'll admit that, but that makes it sound like I'm one of the fattest women in the world, which I am far from. -
Isn't BMI inaccurate due to it not taking into account muscle mass - which I have quite a bit of.
Female 15-29
BMI : 23
Height 5ft 5 ( I'm one quarter off 6 inches)
Weight: 62.9kg
67% below national average
60% above world average
If same BMI remove 7,795,635 tonnes lost
Most like some one like Azerbaijan - strange

Re: Global Fat Scaleit might not be that inaccurate since lots of countries were the average is really low have really high populations, china for example. plus there are countries where there are large proportions of the population many people literally starving. so if you are actually fat which you say you are, you probably are in the top 2% of the world.(Original post by Airfairy)

I mean with a bmi of 22 which is bang on in the middle of healthy it says I'm heavier than over half of the population of the world which I don't really find surprising despite being lighter than 75% of this country -

You're most like someone from Jordan (not a bad guess; I'm half Lebanese).
However, this clearly hasn't taken into account my sexy muscle bulk. -
