    I'm 5' 7.5", SW 175 lbs, CW 171 lbs, GW 145 lbs. I'm an apple shape I guess. Tummy really needs to go! I started April 9, 2013 and the weight loss has been really slow going for me. I am losing inches and muscles are more toned than before I began and trying not to focus on the scale but how I feel... which is awesome!
    Weigh in is tomorrow, hoping to lose at least 1 lb. It can be discouraging when the scale refuses to budge!!
    Good luck to everyone!!

    Age: 44
    Bust: 39"
    Waist: 37"
    Hips: 40"

    5" 6.5"

    SW - 210
    CW - 205
    GW - 140ish

    I'm an hourglass naturally. When I'm slimmer my waist is usually about 12" smaller than hips and chest

    I carry weight everywhere though I have the hardest time getting it off my arms and calves

    5' 6'' - Pear
    SW (long ago) 151
    CW 145
    GW 136

    I've been as low as 131 before, but I'm a lot more muscular now, so it wouldn't look as good.

    Hi, Im 5'6.
    My HW (pre MFP and Post Baby) :218
    MFP SW: 212
    CW: 180
    GW: 160 (But will reevaluate goals once I reach 165)

    Im a hourglass/pear hybrid if that is at all possible. lol. My broad shoulders give me a perfect hourglass but my basic measurements imply Pear. Im a comfy 14 but I can fit some 12 (FINALLY!!! :laugh: ), there is usually extra space in the waist area of my 14s, but not the hips or thigh area :ohwell: .

    5'6'' and a half.

    SW - 142 - Size 8
    CW - I am not weighing myself for the first two weeks of my diet. I am 6 days in.
    GW - 132 - Size 6

    Most of my weight is the junk in my trunk. So I would say pear shaped, maybe.

    I always find these threads so interesting!

    I'm 5'7"

    SW: 155
    CW: 141
    GW: 135-ish?

    I think I'm a straight shape. My measurements are 35-28-38 currently. I have long legs and narrow hips, but my butt is really big out to the back, lol! I gain weight all over. All the calculators give me a different result (Hourglass? Ha! I wish!)

    I'm going to get myself tested at a bod pod next week, and I will probably aim more for a bf% goal than a weight. I have plenty of muscle, and know I need to lean out more to have the look I want.
