    It is a guide to assessing risk, not a definitive answer. Belly fat is associated with higher health risks and this ratio MAY indicate more belly fat. On the other hand, if you just happen to have a larger waist (that is not due to fat accumulatino there) and/or smaller hips, it is less meaningful.

    Exactly. It's sort of like the apple shape vs. pear shape argument. If you are apple shaped AND you have a lot of excess body weight, it is more likely to go around your organs and cause issues like hypertension, diabetes, ect. If someone has a .84 hip to waist ratio and has a low-normal body fat %, then it doesn't mean they are at risk. It just means if they were to become obese it could cause more problems than the person who has a .6 Hip to waist ratio.

    0.81 46 inch waist and 55 inch hips. Huge I know but at least my ratio isn't THAT bad.

    No full body pics but there are a couple from the waist up in my profile.
