    Wow that was interesting

    BMI - 20
    lower BMI than 91% of females aged 30-44 in my country
    Lower BMI than 74% of females aged 30-44 in the world

    Interesting fact:- If everyone in the world had the same BMI as you, it would remove 40,649,102 tonnes fromthe total weight of the world's population

    I am more similar to someone from Sri Lanka

    According to this I am the FATTEST PERSON IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.

    I hope I get some kind of prize.

    Nope, I'm right there with you! Fatter than 93% if American women and 100% globally and compare to a woman from Tonga and they are the fattest nation of women anyway!

    Wow... Well good thing the BMI scale isn't really that accurate. I had my body fat measured recently, and I'm within normal range for women. Unfortunately, I happen to weigh more than the BMI scale says I should, so I am considered "Obese." I still need to lose about 15 pounds though.

    Now that was very interesting. I am average in Vietnam. :)

    What I was really shock by was that if everyone in the world was the same BMI as I am, it would lose 21,231,668 tonnes.
