    Every inch of what you've shown here is beautiful/incredible/scrumptious.

    Your lips are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I know it's hard to feel happy with what you've got when bombarded by other people's expectations of an ideal figure or media images but KNOW THIS....you have one of the single most beautiful bodies I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot. I've been part of super secret things where bodies get SHOWN.

    You are definitely a contender for most beautiful, if not number one. I mean you beat every pageant girl I've shared a stage with and every cheerleader I've shared the field with and every LA party girl I've (unknowingly) shared a man with LOLOLOLOL.

    You are gorgeous. Confidence. Fake it till you make it.

    I think you look very lovely. I'd find a good tailor or learn to alter your own clothes.

    I am 35-26-41.

    I also have a pear shape! I am working on trying to love it and deal with it. I have realized that even if you get super skinny (and unhealthy) the booty will still be there. Best way is to build up your upper body and even it out I guess. No fun trying to find a good pair of pants but we have to embrace those curves!

    OP, at least you have a bust. Mine - 38/36.5/47. Pants are a PITA and since I suck at sewing darts I'm stuck with the back pants gap (large enough for both my husband's fists) or wearing a belt. The pants gap is why I hate my butt so much.

    Sorry that many of you ladies don't like your pear shape, because as far as I am concerned there is nothing like a lady with a nice set of hips. hubba hubba

    I'm with you! 34-25-40, so pretty darn close! I'm learning to like my shape. I used to be sooooo self-conscious of my hips and thighs but I've learned that I can't change it so I may as well learn to love it. I've been lifting because if my thighs, hips, and butt are going to be big, they may as well be firm :)

    40 in hips are not huge. Yes, it can be an inconvenience if your hips are
    proportionately larger than your waist etc. But that's where getting your clothes tailored come into play.
    Or dressing for your shape.

    I've accepted, that for my body, certain fashions/styles are off limits.

    I'm not really pear shaped.....more "bottom heavy".

    But there's nothing I can do about it. As I've lost weight, I've stayed the same "shape", only smaller.

    No sense in beating myself up over it.

    Thank you to all of the encouraging and pear-loving responses in the thread! I had intended it to be a "let's complain about how inconvenient this shape is" thread, but you all have really made me feel better about the whole thing!

    I definitely need to find a tailor, the notorious pants-gap is a huge problem, as I'm sure most or all of you can relate.

    Anyway, I'm going to try to look on the bright side from now on :)

    I'm definitely pear shaped, but I don't look as good as you, damn. I'm also pretty tall, so buy pants is basically a nightmare because either they're long enough, or they're loose enough, but rarely are they both. Luckily, I work at home, so I can live in yoga and PJ pants, which are v. forgiving.

    I think you are lovely. Women in my family tend to resemble bowling pins - skinny on the top with bodacious hips - you are nicely proportioned. :laugh:

    This website is a great one for those with hourglass or pear-shapes:

    Thank you for posting this because all the positive feedback you received has cheered me up too.

    Funnily (or not) we have similar proportions yet I look at your pictures and see "stunning" and I look at the mirror and see "bleurgh"

    seriously?? your complaining that your pair shaped?? I would be so lucky to have a pair shaped body. Woman with no hips look like a bean pole ( no offense to anyone with that figure) Curves are very sexy and should be embraced!!!
