    That was fun!

    I am most like someone from the Phillipines.

    I have less fat than 76% of women in Australia aged 30 - 44 and 54% less than women in the rest of the world aged 30 - 44.

    If everyone had the same body fat percentage as me it would remove 5,001,767 tonnes of body fat from the world.

    And I was having a 'fat' day today.....

    Thanks,

    Donna

    I am most like someone from Kuwait...

    I am now disheartened not because of Kuwait but because 88% of the the world have less fat than me.

    Just been on the BBC website this morning and saw an item I thought I would share.

    Turns out I have below average fat for my country but above average globally.

    I am most like someone from Ireland.

    Where are you on the scale?
    weird coincidence!

    Tonga, apparently. IDK, though, I'm not convinced that at 210lbs I'm bigger than 100% of women in my age bracket in my country. I have many a friend bigger than me.

    This can't be right, can it?
    I know loads of people much bigger than myself but it calculated me as having "more body fat than 100% of males aged 45-59 in the world" which by my thinking would make me the fattest 53 year old on the planet and at 19 stone 10 lbs. I don't think so, lol...

    I have to ask (as someone who is also 100% fatter than everyone else) the people who are over 100lb overweight why does that result surprise you?

    Don't forget that the program uses rounding, so 99.5% or higher is rounded to 100%.
