Oh dear! Just read that your waist measurement should be half your height, I think someone’s having a laugh at 68 years old I need to lose few inches, I must keep up the walking and exercise, interested to know if there are many people on here that fits the bill, actually thought I was doing ok having a bmi of 26 and on 16 years of continuous steroids having put on 3 stones and lost it, keep smiling guys !

My waist is 67 cm (26.5inches) I am 5ft 7 which is 170cm
so waist is less than half my height.
I am pushing 60, so not a youngster.
I do go to the gym regularly and walk a lot.
