This site was posted in the Success forum a while back, but I thought I'd mention it here.

Does your perception match reality ...

    you are 2.5% larger than you think you are...

    Your measurements place you at a larger size than the model pictured, although this doesn't take your body shape into account. Wearing the right size clothes can have a fantastic impact on your figure. Take a look at our guide below to find tips and advice for your body shape!

    I need to look in the mirror more.

    "You are 30% smaller than you think you are..."

    Wee! I thought I might be a bit smaller than I thought I was, but not by that much.

    Heh.
    You are the perfect strawberry

    Strawberry: You're broadest at your shoulders, with a smaller waist and hips.

    Wow, that's fascinating. I'm 20% smaller than I think I am and the perfect hourglass. I did always know that I gain weight symmetrically. That's a blessing and a curse, to me.

    7.5% smaller than I thought, but I couldn't find U.S. so I picked Cornwall.

    Huh. I tend to worry that I flatter myself and think I'm smaller than I am, and then the test gives me "you are 20% smaller than you think you are". (I knew I was an hourglass shape-wise, though, that wasn't news.)

    Your measurements indicate that you're actually smaller than the size you guessed on the sliding scale!
    You are the perfect pear.

    I rounded up all my measurements too since they don't have halves. If I round down I'm 5% smaller than I think I am. That was kind of cool to see that. I know I can be my own worst critic. It turns out my body isn't even on the sliding scale of bodies. I put it between the first and second body, but it says my actual body is all the way to the left before the first body. Go figure.

    I was a little larger than I thought but would I think to guess accurately, the height of the women would need to be stated. A women with my statistics but taller would probably look slimmer and vice versa.

    Mine said I'm 17.5% smaller than the body size I picked... it's weird because I think I have a perception boss in the other direction. I always think I'm smaller than I am and then realize later I've gained 10 pounds.

    5% larger than I think that I am. I think that I look like the body that I picked but this doesn't' adjust for height, so my view is more zoomed out ;-)

    This was fun. lol I got:

    "you are exactly what you think you are...
    You guessed your own body size correctly, nice work!"

    I chose in between the two on the far left. Hourglass as well, but I pretty much already knew that. ...-goes back to lurking- ^_^

    I'm 17.5% smaller :blush: Perfect Pear. Funny because I always say I'm one of those people that think I'm smaller than I actually am haha. I also never thought of myself as pear shaped, more hourglass.

    I got 17.5% smaller and Perfect Pear. I liked that quiz!

    I came out 7.5% smaller than I thought I was. Being a perfect pear surprised me as I used to be more hourglass. But then, since starting strength training my upper body has slimmed down a lot quicker than my bottom half so that's probably why.

    Hey this is fun!!

    "you are 20% smaller than you think you are..."

    Well that's great :D but, strange, I always seem to think I look great and then when I see myself in a picture I can't believe how huge I am. Hmm...

    Hmm 7.5% smaller than I think I am. Interesting.

    That being said, it said I'm an hourglass. My measurements are 35/31/36, that's not hourglass, that's rectangle.

    No, it's a UK site. Just pick a place in the UK where you'd like to visit. This time, I chose Cardiff. :)

    5% smaller and a perfect hourglass. I do not think that word means what you think it means! :smiley:
