Showing some love for the eastern bloc, Estonia.

Right on the border for BMI of 25 but I certainly could lose 4 or 5 kilos.

If everyone in the world had the same BMI as you, it would add 82,883,723 tonnes tothe total weight of the world's population

I'm also fatter than 99% of the men aged 15-29 in the world.

That's ****ing depressing. I don't even think I'm that fat.

I am most like someone from Mauritius. Can anybody tell me what yer average Mauritian female looks like, weight-wise?

Oh, and as for this little chestnut: "Did you know? If everyone in the world had the same BMI as you, it would add 32,988,051 tonnes to the total weight of the world's population."

Yeah, thanks for that, BBC. Just what I needed to hear.

Um I'm UK.

That's handy.

On another note I'm on a health kick, nothing mad just eating better and more exercise - I've started spin classes which are pretty good and have packed in the booze until after Ramadan. I'm about as big as I've ever been and need to shed some weight...
