Mine is Horrible
Good thing I"m here to change!!!
Anyway here is mine:
BMI=42
Both national and global is 100% Higher
and if everyone had my BMI it would add 224,403,229 tonnes
and i compare to someone in tonga
I was at a BMI=50 when i first started
and if everyone had my bmi it would add 314,507,928 tonnes
So that is progress (: I have a long way to go but I'm getting there!0 -
I typed me details in and it said "You are gorgeous and BMI is a deeply flawed method of gauging fitness".

very interesting!!0 -
I'm most like someone from Tonga, which is apparently the fattest place in the world if I'm reading right. . I have a higher BMI than 89% of females aged 15-29 in your country (USA). Global and I have a higher BMI than 100% of females aged 15-29 in the world. Wow, way to make me feel like a fattie, even though I have already lost over 56 pounds. *sigh* >.<
Reaching my goal weight, I'd be like someone from Mexico. I'd have a lower BMI than 62% of females aged 15-29 in your country and I'd still have a higher BMI than 78% of females aged 15-29 in the world. So even if I reach my goal weight, I'd be fat compared to everyone else. That's sad. I hate stuff like this because it makes me feel horrible but yet I can't stop myself from looking at it.0 -

Guys, seriously, these numbers are no measure of your worth and i very much doubt you are bigger or heavier than 100% of the whole world, LMAO. That's what it told me too and i laughed. Maybe i'm just immune to all the medical tools out there telling me i'm the size of an island or whatever but this one is just a bit of fun for me. It's interesting but Christ, it's nothing to live by! Have you ever heard of or known of someone who weighs more than you and lives in your country or on the same planet as you? If you do, awesome, you can't say you're heavier than them. If you don't, you just haven't met them yet the way i see it, lol.
Seriously, don't let this trigger you or hurt you, the lady with the beautiful green hair didn't post this to upset anyone. Besides, have you Googled Tonga yet!? It's a beautiful place, i'm all for getting my fat *kitten* over there, snacking on exotic fruit all day and lying in the sun with my own damn kind. Seems like a nice place to work on one's self-esteem.
Seriously, your weight, BMI, clothing size and whatever other numbers people want to pull out of their behinds to try and determine how much you fail at life are all NO WAY IN HELL an indication of how wonderful, awesome, inspiring, beautiful, fantastic, brave or strong you are. That goes for those with lower numbers too. So your BMI is textbook perfect, your weight is spot-on, you look awesome in anything you wear and you've never known what it is to feel fat, you're STILL no better than us apparent Tongians (Tongans? Tonganese? Whatever).
I bring joy, love, laughter, comfort and kindness to all the people i love and who love me at my starting weight, current weight and whatever weight i'll ever, ever be. I'll STILL be the same girl, only healthier and that's all we're changing, lovelies. Your weight, not your worth...if the two go hand-in-hand and threads like this have the ability to bring one down without the other then you need to have a heart-to-heart with your inner Tongonian 'cause no number in this whole world is reflective of the awesomeness that is you.0 -
