[QUOTE="banjo brunette, post: 120999, member: 16074"] Hi UPB men are not necessarily apples while women are pears. Many women are apples - me included. Also many diabetics are apples - the visceral fat around the tummy being one of the signs they look out for. Isn't this why they say the hip/waist ratio is a better indicator for ill-health than the BMI per se? Cheers, BB :D [/QUOTE]
