It's common for women to see themselves as bigger than they are but this website i just found is really interesting and i wanted to share it!

You pick a model you think you look closest too and then write down a few measurements and it tells you which you are really closest to. Mine was two models difference! and i am approx 12% smaller than i think i am.
Obviously take it with a pinch of salt but give it a try, you may learn more about yourself and have a little self confidence booster.

    I was in the middle of two bodies LOL?

    I guessed the fifth body but was in the middle of the third & fourth for the actual body.

    Wow! I guessed the 4th body, but I was actually the second one. Eye opener for sure.

    Apparently I'm 17.5% smaller that I think I am... Interesting. I guessed the fourth body but I'm actually a tiny bit before the first one? Crazy.

    I apparently am larger than I think. Oops. This may explain why I got so overweight.

    This was me also. I totally thougth I was being generous to myself with picking the fourth body, I was going to go for the fifth.
    I guess that was a reality check. Huh.

    I'm 7.5% smaller than I think! Quite chuffed about that :) I guessed the third body but I'm halfway between the first and second.

    5% larger than I think I am.

    I think that I look better than all models presented, though. There wasn't really a choice that looked like me.

    I didn't realize that you could pick in between so I was 2.5% smaller than I thought I was but if I had realized you could pick in between I would probably have been bang on. I don't really like my body but I clearly don't see myself as bigger than I am :smile:

    Interesting! Thank you for sharing. I originally chose the 6th size and somehow ended up the first....a huge difference of 25%.

    I guess I'm more realistic. I'm only 2.5% smaller than I think I am. Which is actually a bummer. I was hoping to be pleasantly surprised.
