That was interesting, You have a lower BMI than 74% of males aged 60-69 in your country. Less than many but more than I ought to be.

Well, I'm doing good in the U.S. but not in the world!

You have a lower BMI than 62% of females aged 45-59 in your country

You have a higher BMI than 71% of females aged 45-59 in the world

I couldn't make it work. it refused to change from metric to Imperial (do we still call it that?) so I had no idea of my metric numbers! I'll try again another day! Good fun reading through all the comments - talk about a blast from the past!
