[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 2613670, member: 150927"] 1.68cm isn't average I don't think - unless you're in the Netherlands or Scandinavia? Parts of Africa? So - Above average height? But yeah - depends on what country or region you live in, and your generation too probably. And ethnicity. Easy for you to Google average heights for your own region, ethnicity - I am assuming gender in there of course. Anyway - the waist/ height ratio is interesting for those with insulin resistance based type two, or vulnerability to as evidenced by prediabetes, as it's about the visceral body fat that is around your organs that can contribute/cause/make worse problems with blood glucose regulation. But as you say - you don't have any and have never had any. If you want to follow this up - Find a health calculator online of your choice - my fave is health-calc. There is one on this website, if you are UK based and use inches to measure (goodness!). Easy to do - enter your height and your waist measurement, and it works out your ratio in terms of the .50 figure or less, being optimal for health purposes. But I agree with you - probably no point as you are genuiniely skinny. The first I have met in here I have to say! It being ultra rare for type two indeed. Not so for the various kinds of auto-immune diabetes, so I am not surprised by you being urged to get tested for all those LADAs and MODYs and so on. So what are you saying [USER=573327]@tiredgirl91[/USER], regarding upping your healthy fat big time, and filling up on protein? You're talking about decent amounts of really nutritious filling and wonderful tasting food that should help you big time with that fatigue in your username.... This is something you can pursue immediately, and I would be very surprised if it doesn't put you into non prediabetic blood glucose levels immediately, and put some meat on your bones, as they say. How are you thinking and feeling about that? [/QUOTE]
