Based on the above I have a BMI of 25 - according to this I'm most likely to be South African ! :rofl:
 
I'm now a 29, and am coming down (slowly) from the 35 I was a couple of years ago.

Currently between a Malta & USA!
 
I'm from Papua New Guinea, BMI of 21, the really remarkable fact is that all the countries around me are third world with issues with famine and Hunger etcetera.....

.....honestly guys I eat very well :D

You think that's bad my BMI of 20 (well 19.6) which means I've got a lower BMI than the mean of any county for my age :rofl:

Oh an most likely to be from Eritrea
 
It's fun sure, but BMI is also complete horse poop & takes no account of body habitus.

I have a BMI of 29 - which makes me technically fat, borderline obese. So why then do I have a body fat index of 11% and a 32" waist ?

A couple of years back during an assessment for a minor op, a nurse took my height and weight and, without looking up, recommended that I "lose weight". I lifted up my tee-shirt and asked her "where from"? :)
 
I am 25bmi and most probably from Fiji.

I have to admit its basically of load a crap and similar to most of the rubbish that gets mentioned in this day and age, I liked it in the past when you could eat what you want and when you want and nobody gave a monkeys and we didn't live in a world so obsessed with statistics and the way people live their lives.

I have just done mine for the first time in years and am 26 but this is with a bit of winter padding! :roll:
 
I'm 28 and from Croatia.

It's all rubbish though. I have an offshore medical and they say I'm fine and the scale is rubbish.

5'11" 14 stone, 32" waist. Big boned
