Thank you for helping me think positively: when I started, I had a higher BMI than 100% of my group in the US and the World. I've so far gone from a 51 BMI to a 36 BMI!!

Progress!

I like that last figure a lot!!!

Oh my, I suppose I should go to that site regularly.

I'm with Lizardline and CandiceMarie, although it's quite an improvement from where I was when I started fasting (BMI of 41). Looks like I need to get to 154lbs to be exactly at 50%ile for France when I'm 50 -- which would give me a BMI lower than 80% of the women in the US in that age range!!! I'll take that, especially since it's 4 pounds heavier than my arbitrary goal of 150 and still gives me a BMI of 25.

@CandiceMarie

Oh, Candice, that is so sweet of you to say! I know many of the women here worry that becoming too thin will make them look haggard, I have been so much happier with my face now that I've lost 90 lbs/40kg. Yes, I see a bit more lines forming around my mouth and eyes, but I also see fewer chins and more cheekbones.

I am most like someone from Mauritania. I have done this before and last time I seem to remember I was most like someone from Malta so things have improved

I did mine against UK and US given my back and forth lifestyle:

I have a lower BMI than 68% of people in my category in the UK but 76% lower than people in the US.
I have a higher BMI than 54% of people globally in my category.

I'm most like a person in Estonia!

You have a lower BMI than 97% of females aged 45-59 in your country (UK)*

If everyone in the world had the same BMI as you, it would remove 68,935,095 tonnes from the total weight of the world's population

I'm most like a woman in Bangladesh.

*NB - tbh, I find this hard to believe unless it's the weirdness of looking larger than I am because of the lower lean body mass and relatively higher body fat level than you might otherwise anticipate at this BMI.
