You have a lower BMI than 93% of females aged 30-44 in your country Global
You have a lower BMI than 76% of females aged 30-44 in the world
You're most like someone from Ethiopia.
Hmm I am not sure how I feel about that.0 -
Interesting. Although I don't like their age ranges. 15-29? C'mon. I put my age as 29 and was above average for both (what I expected). I input my age as 30 (will be there in 3 months) and was below the national average. I also input my goal weight... below on both! Just another piece of motivation!0

I keep wondering why those of you who find this depressing even did it in the first place. You know you're heavy and presumably you know you won't handle it well.

How can you calculate body fat percentage based on sex, age, height and weight. Complete rubbish! The BBC should know better.
They are not calculating body fat percentage. They are calculating BMI (Body Mass Index) . The BMI scale has its flaws as we all know. ie a heavily muscled person also has a high BMI. However, for the most part it is a reasonable estimate of size, and typical body fat percentage.
It's supposed to fun and interesting:)0 -
Greece, just one up from the UK... is that good or bad lol, either way I've props got more money in my pocket lol0
