Health Assessment - "Know Your Numbers"

[NorthamptonGirl]

I've just had a health assessment through work... and I'm quite pleased with the results. I would recommend these to people.

My results
Height - 164.3cm (I don't totally agree with this, as I thought I was 5ft 5)
Weight - 87kg
BMI - 32.23
Waist - 88cm
Waist/Height ratio 54 (overweight is 49-54)
Blood pressure - 126/89
Resting heart rate - 55 bpm
Total cholesterol 4.18 (below 5.01 is desirable)
Total HDL (good fat) cholesterol - 1.88 (above 1.6 is desirable)
Ratio of Good/Bad cholesterol - 2.2 (below 4.5 is the target)

The only thing that wasn't good was my glucose levels... for a FASTING blood test they shouldn't be below 3.9. Mine was a NON-FASTING test and was 4.1
