Really? You're a female and you're kinda old compared to some other people who already did it. (Life expectancy should be higher as you age because not everyone makes it to a certain age and gets "eliminated". Not sure if this test is accurate on that though)

If anybody knows what the average weight for 5'6" male is, let me know so I can finish the test.

Probably 125lbs, I'm guessing.

Thanks. I'll go do the test now.

Actually it tells you the BMI and I think 125lbs is too low. It tells you what a healthy BMI should be.

According to this chart -

http://www.new-fitness.com/bmi/bodymassindex.html

125lbs results in a healthy BMI.

In any case, I don't know if I am 125lbs. If 125lbs is average for someone my height, I'm guessing I'd be about 115-125lbs, but I'm not sure.

WOW! 89... So does this mean I would live longer than my future wife?

91, there's plenty of things they didn't consider though.
I don't think I have a single negative on there besides stress, so I'm assuming they're giving those with significant years on them already more years.

I've taken the test again, and I'm expected to live to 91. I've back arrow last time, looking for my life expectancy.
