    Most like someone from Singapore.

    Less body fat than 79% of females aged 15-29 in my country (UK)
    Less body fat than 53% of females aged 15-29 in the world.

    ETA: What I don't like is it says "body fat" instead of weight. Just did this for my bf, he's overweight by the BMI (26) but has around 11% body fat, and quite a lot of muscle. It should say "you are heavier than...."

    I'm fatter than over %50 of females in the USA and over %80 of people worldwide. I'm such a pig. No wonder so many people are starving, I done et all the food. Seriously, that bothers me for more reasons than just aesthetics.

    At goal weight I'll be thinner than %92 of American women my age and %74 worldwide.

    At my lowest ever weight (too low!) I had less body fat than %90 of women in the world (lucky I'm not dead from that dieting escapade).

    At my highest, it says I had more body fat than %100 of females in the world. Oh joy, I was the fattest woman in the world. Oh wait, no, %3 of American women were fatter. Phew.

    Thanks for this link!

    lol me too!!! i have more body fat than 100% that woman from 15-29 on both nationally and globaly :/ this is even worse than the bmi :sad:

    This is what proves this is absolute rubbish cos of course you're not the heaviest person in your age range IN THE WORLD - it's ridiculous and clearly very flawed! Have they not included bigger people at all or something? So damaging to put this stuff out there!

  • I have less body fat than 96% of males aged 15-29 in your country, which means I have less body fat than 78% of males aged 15-29 in the world.

    I'm most like someone from North Korea!

    That's an awesome link! Thanks!

    I am most like someone from Switzerland...and I'm SO not surprised. I always tell people I am solid and I can account for every pound I carry around! LOL!

    I have less body fat than 72% of females aged 30-44 in the US. :smile:

    But compared to the rest of the world, I have more body fat than 63% of females aged 30-44. :tongue:


    These numbers only say one thing about women my age...us Americans are NOT fit! I'm working on changing that...my contribution to the US! :drinker:

    OK... I don't think this thing is right. I have a BMI of 19. It says that I have less body fat than 86% of women 45 - 59, and that I have the body fat of someone from Bangladesh. I feel like I am at a good weight for me. I'm not starving. I just like being thin and healthy.

    I'm currently in Chile (nice country - I enjoyed working there). I want to get to Myanmar though!!

    It is slightly depressing to be told I'm fatter than three quarters of the women in the world and if everyone in the world had the same body fat as you, it would add 45,622,671 tonnes tothe total weight of the world's population :(

    Finally changed my Firefox setting so it would show me some country besides Tonga. Right now it says I'm like someone from Trinidad and Tobago (I hope no one makes me find those on a map!).

    At goal weight I'll be most like someone from Ethiopia. Good thing I happen to know Ethiopa has a wealthy population that can afford to eat, not just a population of starving poor. Too bad it's more expensive for me to eat healthier so far, so much for donating those calories I'm not eating to someone who needs them. :sad:

    It said that for me too and then I realized that I wasn't entering my weight as pounds...it was preset to kilometers or kilograms or something. When I got my settings right it made me feel much better!

    Ethiopa has a wealthy class, and I believe a small middle class. Not everyone is starving.
