Thread: Where are you on the Global Fat Scale

This is me.










BBC News - Where are you on the global fat scale?

Mine told me I was fatter than 100% of women my age, both in the UK and globally.
Great motivator, thanks BBC!!!!

DItto. But then again, what's this based on? How do they know how much we all weigh on average? When was the last time you told a researcher how much you weigh??

You only have to walk around a supermarket at any time of day these days to see how many women (and men, for that matter) have weight problems. Oh well...

You have a higher BMI than89% of females aged 15-29in your country

Heh, ah well that's nice to know isn't it...

Looking at your stats Sparx, I think that's a heap of sh..te...

I think the whole thing is rubbish tbh. I would love to know where they get the information from!! I'm fat, but I am certainly not that fat!!!!

Yeah I reckon it's a load of rubbish too because I know I'm not thin but there will certainly be bigger than me in the 15-29 bracket :P
*Bigger's the wrong word I mean like heavier.

lol i got 100% in the uk and in the world... i know people in the uk in my age bracket who are bigger than I am, so thats physically impossible!

Only women in Tonga and Micronesia are fatter than me. . .

I'm "most like someone from Tonga"!!

I'm thinking of moving to Tonga, apparently it's one of the few places in the world where I would be considered skinny, who's with me?!

Tonga sounds like a must lol, day one of diet and that made me fwel great :-(

I'm in for a trip to Tonga!

Aw Sandra, don't feel down, do it DESPITE the BBC, that's how I view it! Load of rubbish!

I should be in Barbados .... Err hello why didn't anyone tell me this? I would've been there in a heart beat haha

What a load of tosh ... I'm looking at it as its great to be an individual wandering around so many skinny people as it states !! Pah they must've had a good laugh putting that crap together

Forget it girls aren't we hear for a worthy reason and we will get there xxx p.s who actually wants to be stick skinny anyway that's what these stats are suggesting

gees that makes ya feel as if no one anywhere is fatter than me...complete bunkum (wanted to use another word beginning with B but I am being polite)
