Rep Power: 298705 | | | Your Real Age
This test has been around for years and I took it years ago... and don't remember the results -I probably blocked it - I saw someone talking about it because it was mentioned on the gospel according to oprah show... I took it again just to see the results... Give it a shot and see how you do... Look younger, live longer – RealAge My actual age is 42.1 I scored a +2 my real age is 44.1
Great - I knew I should of stayed in bed this morning.
Where it docked me for points is because of family history of breast and ovarian cancer - it says I should take precautions or go for advanced screening - the questions seemed to be phrased in a way that history alone will dock youo - i've had mammograms since i was 35 - and have had more than one cyst removed...
It also kills me on sleep - or lack thereof... that and my blood pressure.
The plan to young me up - involves taking lots of vitamins - thanks i'll pass on that...
So I'll read thru their plan and see what i can do and take the test again in 90 days and see if i'm younger 
How'd yuo do ?

Rep Power: 32 | | | I'm 31... my "real age" was supposedly already down to 23 and I still had 4-5 pages worth of questions left and it never recalculated. Guess I'll have to wait for the final email to roll in to figure out what it finally decided. |

Rep Power: 591 | | | Oh dear... Calendar Age 44, Real Age 39.8 Difference - 4.7. However, it ignores the fact that I'm actually a bloke in his mid-life crisis with a mental age of 15... |

Rep Power: 591 | | | Update Just for an experiment, I just edited my survey to see what results I would get if I hadn't have changed lifestyle i.e. as if my lifestyle and problems were unchanged from last year.
My result Real Age was 48.6. Thats right, almost ten years difference. If I was living the way that I was living last year (e.g. overweight, heartburn, poor sex, bad food, drinking too much beer, no exercise at all, etc), then my calculated Realage would be 48.6. Because I now go running, strength training, drink less booze, have lost my excess bodyweight, eat my greens, fibres etc - my RealAge has improved to 38.8 years.
Theres inspiration for anyone thinking about learning to live! It really does make you younger - 10 years younger!

Rep Power: 328 | | Gah! I have to wait for my results! lol
I suppose it's going to give a different result now I'm exercising to one I'd have had a few months ago - like TF says, could be 10 years difference.
On the questions; I know I'm pretty laid back, but my heartrate was too low for their scales! Mine came in at 42 beats - the scale only started at 45!  Oooer, I'm worried now - am I about to pop my clogs? 
Anyway, it's all very well getting the scores low - just be careful crossing the road peeps or it'll all stand for nothing!

Rep Power: 328 | | Calendar Age 30.7 (well that's wrong for starters! 24 I tells you, 24!)
Difference -1.8
My RealAge 28.9
Looking at the "What's making your RealAge Younger" & "Older" section, there's some pretty wild assumptions being used to calculate things so I'm certainly not going to take this test too seriously.
It does flag up that my heart rate is too slow (unless I'm "extremely physically fit for your age" **looks at body - shakes head**). I should speak to my doc apparently. I'll re-take it later - I could've been just really chilled out
