    This was really fun. I am 12.5% smaller than I think I am. I'm not too surprised, since I've just started being healthier and lost weight, so my mind is probably still stuck on the "old" me.

    I live in the USA...so what am I supposed to pick for a region? Are all of you that tried this site from the UK?

    Am I the only one who was spot on? Makes me feel I have a bit too much confidence...

    Nope, I was spot on also. I don't think it means that we have too much confidence, we may be just further along our journey and are no longer stuck at a previous self-image? Just guessing there.

    (I had to lie about where I am from as I do not live in the UK. However, my family has roots in Wales...)

    Would have been spot on if I hadn't changed my answer. After the change I came out as guessing I was 2.5% (half a size) smaller than I really am. Then again, I had chosen my confidence level at 80%. :-)

    I guessed my size exactly - I do have hourglass figure but my stomach protrudes (family genetics). What does one do with huge arms and all that flabbly skin? All the fashions have way too short of sleeves for me.

    I am "22.5% smaller" than I guessed. Also, I've always considered myself an "apple," but this website says I'm a "pear." I'm not so sure about that.... But we'll see how it goes as I get closer to where I want to be. :D

    I find this website doesn't look at all the facts. First, I was expecting they would take height into their calculation. I am 5'0", and consider myself an apple shape. However, the website told me I had a curvy figure. My hips are narrow, but I have the additional inches in my kaboose, and I am small busted, but I have a wide upper back, which increases the inches as well. I'm more like a plank of wood, rectangular, and flat! :sad: :ohwell:

    Oh, and what does your location have to do with this?

    Nope, me too. The funny thing is, I probably would've guessed the same body size when I was 40 lbs heavier. I always thought I carried my weight very well... until I saw my self from all angles in a gym class with mirrored walls. Yikes!

    In the UK , our health and lifestyles are very clearly split depending on the location where we live and we have decades no actually centuries of data which supports this. For example people who live in the south of England have a longer life expectancy that those in the north. Obviously there are exceptions to the rule, there always are but I assume this app is based on what they consider lifestyle likelihood to be.
