What is your life expectancy? Take the quiz

[sjs314]

80 for me

 

[cm8]

Your calculated life expectancy is 98years.

92.

My mom is 84, and pretty healthy; her mom lived to be 94.

When I lose the weight I'm working on I want to try again.

 

[LisaR]

I got 88.

But this is probably because on the medical questions (cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, etc.), I had to keep answering "I don't know." LOL! And my answer to the "when was your last medical?" was over 3 years ago.

I have a major doctor/hospital phobia, so I don't go see a doctor unless I absolutely have to!

I can count on one hand the number of times I've been to a doctor since my 6 week post-natal check-up after younger DS was born (who will be 4 in July). So, in almost 4 years, I've been to the doctor the following times: 1) when I had strep throat, 2) pink eye, 3) when I twisted my knee running, & 4) follow-up for my knee.

OT but kind of a funny related story to the part I made bold. My mom was having a problem with her eyes and had to go to a specialist. She needed a procedure done and they did some simple tests to make sure she could have it done. They discovered that she had ridiculously high blood pressure. They asked her when she had had her last physical and she said, "I had a physical after having my last baby." They looked at her and didn't really know how to respond. They called me in the room to discuss her health and she pointed out that I was her "baby." I was 33 y/o! Wendy31, try not to wait as long as my mom did.

The quiz says I should live until I am 98. I don't think it is remotely accurate. I guess time will tell.

This will be me exactly!!

(If I can get away w/ it... DH's been pressuring me for a while...)

 

[SLP958]

I got 96. I just can not see that happening. I will be a tired old lady!

 

[Reddy]

I got 103
my Grandfather is 91 - will be 92 in July

 

[bdcp]

I got 92, older than all my relatives have lived to. Most lived to 85-88.

 

[SAHDad]

" Your calculated life expectancy is 96 years. " I intend to live longer than that.

 

[Sabeking]

88 unless of course I get hit by a bus first.

 

[momto3gr8boys]

I got 93.

Sent from my iPad using DISBoards

 

[snarlingcoyote]

I got 100. So long as I'm mentally competent when I die, that's fine by me.

 

[lsyorke]

I got 100. I'm not sure why mine is so high other than possibly the fact that longevity runs in my family.

I think that's a big part of this...I got 103(had two grandparents who lived to over 100)

 

[Colleen27]

I got 93, but I know that's wrong. Women in my family expire at 90.

 

[Acklander]

I got 74. (cancer runs in the family). I once had a dream where I was visiting with a friend (who had died a few years before the dream) and he told me I wouldn't die until I was 55. The dream unnerved me.

 

[Candleinthewind]

57 I am thrilled about that since I never thought I would live to see 40!

FYI: Just wanted to let people know before they do this whole quiz that at the end they require you to register to get the answer. I don't want to give out my email address, so it was for nothing.

I find it odd that almost every person on this thread will live so long. I'm not taking the quiz, don't want to register. But my parents only made it to 70 and 77. My grandmothers only lived to 42 and 56. I'm 56 now and have considered every day after 50 a gift.

 

[palmbeachmom]

I got 78, which is funny to me since I'm currently on the downhill slide with my brain tumor! I guess even though all my family dies off young from cancer, and I'm now overweight and can't exercise, since I don't eat processed meats, smoke and rarely drink, I should be good to go

I definitely think it has to do partly with how you answer the family age question.

I just went back and said that I smoke, eat tons of processed foods, no exercise, more than 50lbs overweight, lost of stress in my life. But I answered that at least one family member lived to over 90. It said that I'll live to 81.

87 here. Not bad. I'm mostly healthy.
