Above average for my country of residence (Israel) with 55% of women having a lower BMI than me, but way below average for my country of origin (US), with 72% of women having a higher BMI than me.
That pretty much tracks with my observations. At least, it explains why Israelis ask me so often why Americans are so fat.0 -
