"People who are a little overweight at age 40 live six to seven years longer than very thin people, whose average life expectancy was shorter by some five years than that of obese people, the study found."

Well, I am 12 years older than my wife...who is 8 years younger than I.

Little over weight (7 yrs longer) > Obese people (5 yrs longer) > very thin people.

Hope that helps.
