    I seen myself as 7.5% bigger than I actually am. And it said I'm a perfect hourglass! Now that is news to me...lol I guess I see myself way different. I have a big problem with self confidence. I totally lack it. Something I need to work on.

    Thanks for the site. :flowerforyou:

    12.5% too big! And I'm an hourglass. Now that's a confidence booster.

    I saw myself as larger by 5%. So I guess I have a fairly close idea of my size. I am pear shaped and but always considered myself to be hourglass. So maybe that will change as I make progress? But hey, I'm in good company: Beyoncé & Katie Holmes are my pear shaped sisters! :wink:

    I knew that it was going to tell me that I was smaller than I really thought...
    I know mentally it's hard to visualize how we really look verses how we feel we look.

    HOWEVER, I did manipulate the measurements a few times...

    It stated I was hourglass all 3 times no matter the measurements.

    So, sadly the site merely throws out shapes without taking in to account actual measurements.

    To be a TRUE hourglass figure.. your hips and chest are the same size within 1 inch AND you waist MUST be at least 9 inches smaller than your hip and chest measurements.

    Otherwise.. you're not an hourglass...

    Seriously get disgusted with sites like these that tell you false information.

    It told me that I'm pear shaped. And, I am. Unfortunately.

    I am 7.5% smaller than I think I am, wow! I thought I was being brutally honest but I was being rude to myself. The cute little statement about me being an hourglass was lovely too, thanks for sharing, women need to be reminded about their skewed view of body more often!! :heart:

    Great site thanks for the link

    'you are 7.5% smaller than you think you are...'

    was my report, yet none of the pics looked like me so was so hard to guess.

    I guessed myself 1 size too big. It said I was a pear which I am not. I am definitely an hourglass. I have both huge boobs and hips!

    Wow, im 27.5% smaller than I thought! Although it doesnt really take into consideration your height, and is that not a big thing when it comes to size?

    Sooooo, let me ask this:

    If it says we're ____ (in my case 20%) smaller than we think (which meant I guessed 4 sizes LARGER--but the sliding scale shows I'm smaller than I think I am) VS larger than someone thinks they are...

    I'm kinda confused now. If I would have guess that I'm LARGER than I think I am, wouldn't that be not so good, and smaller better? It picked me as a perfect rectangle figure and I am that shape.

    But when I think about it--guessing yourself "larger" than you think you are can sound not so good AND guessing yourself smaller can sound not so good (but the results look/feel good)--but it's kinda tricky to me. Because when I guessed smaller, I was a LOT of sizes smaller--4 sizes smaller (which looking at the model--I AM actually the smaller sized silhouette they picked/showed me--my actual size 100%). It's confusing to me, because somehow guessing larger than you think you are sounds good and so does smaller. Can someone help me understand why guessing you're LARGER than you think you are is good. It actually sounds like a bummer to guess your exact size, but when you think about it--that's the best. It's kinda sounding shady/tricky to me now...I dunno now:indifferent: :huh: :indifferent:
