There is a huge difference between no fat, low fat, and a regular person's diet. You seem to imply low fat = no fat. You need ~30% of your calories from fat. That is low compared to most diets now.

I get about 30%. I agree with that. I do not consider that low.

When I read low, I thought of obese women looking at frozen dinners with a big "ONLY 2g of FAT" on it.

Another big problem with the test is that it never asks which types of fats.

Your "ideal" weight for maximum longevity is: 167 lbs.

The three biggest positive factors that you have going for you are:
1. Age of parents
2. Age of grandparents
3. Personality type

The two biggest negative factors that you have going for you are:
1. Gender
2. Family health
Based on your answers to the above questions, your current life expectancy is

Heh it's funny though cause I'm 5'11 and 185lbs, but I'm very fit, far from unhealthy.

91, holy sh!t. good thing there's no checkbox for "flies small planes", that probably reduces your life expectancy.

MSN really, really sucks.

I got "91 years or more", but I need to gain 7 pounds to live that long, lol.

I guess I'll keep on mountain climbing, rock climbing, and riding motorcycles, since I'm not due yet.

I'm 28 and it says I will live until the ripe old age of 87

And most ATOT'ers are still too young to drink so the results are flawed.

85.

I weigh 149 and should weigh 164. I don't think i'll make the effort to gain that.

My biggest negative factor is Gender. I don't think i'll make the effort to change that either.

I got 85, and I'm 14 now. Probably because I just said I completed high school, which I'm still in. Maybe after I finish college I'll get a higher rating, but to tell you the truth I'm pretty happy with it.

My mom took the test and got 93, it's not fair :(
