    You have a higher BMI than 54% of females aged 15-29 in the world

    Two things. One, everyone around me always tells me I am above average so this is noooo surprise (insert winky-faced emoticon here). Two, When I started MFP a little over a month ago, my BMI was 40, so while I am super depressed about the actual numbers, I am happy they are now headed in the right direction. :)

    Fun tool, but don't stress over the results. BMI is a fairly useless measure.

    Relax, this is one of the few times I've ever seen BMI used correctly: to compare populations.

    I got Madagascar. The fact that I have a BMI (22) lower then 87% of females my age in the US and 61% of the world makes me sad.

    It says I have to move to Tonga and that I am more obese than 95% of the world's population. Stupid game, I'm not playing anymore. I'm going home!

    This is bogus. It only asked my gender, weight, height, and age. Nothing about body fat percentage. They are making assumptions about body composition. Irrelevant.

    This wasn't in the least bit encouraging. Maybe we should not compare ourselves to others and just focus on doing the best we can for ourselves.
