Interesting/fun page from the BBC on global BMI stats. You can put in your own info and see which country's population you are most like, and how you compare to the rest of your demographic in your own country.

I'm from Angola. I probably live in the suburbs of Luanda. I went swimming in the Atlantic ocean today. I wanted to go fishing too but I'll leave to for tomorrow. It's a fasting day and I want something to keep me busy...

I started my weight loss journey at Micronesia (I think my all time highest weight might have put me in Tonga though, I didn't make a note of what I weighed)

I'm in Spain at the moment and aiming for Myanmar, or maybe a little lower.
