    I got 27.5% smaller than I think I am. I guessed the 8th body, but it says I'm actually in between 2nd and 3rd. It's sad how poorly we perceive ourselves.

    I actually guessed correctly. Interesting. I nearly chose a different model, but didn't because of the legs.

    I didn't know the slider could go beyond the smallest model and my waist measurement wasn't on there (it's 21.5 inches). It said I'm 5% smaller than I think but I'm pretty sure I would've been dead on if it weren't for these things.

    I like the idea, though. I actually saw this documentary on women with eating disorders and one of them was in an art therapy session where she had to draw an outline of what she thinks her body looks like; she was off by about 25-30%.

    Wow, 12.5% difference for me too. I was 2.5 bodies apart. Of course, I still look at that smaller body and think to myself " I don't look that small". Ok, small is relative, because the body it says I am is between the 6th and 7th one. Still, I was pleasantly surprised.

    I am apparently 10 percent smaller than I think I am. Whoohoo! I'll take it! I'm going to repeat this to myself at times when I feel like I'm having one of those "fat" days. You know, those days when you try on everything in your closet and you still feel like a whale. (I think it's hormones.) It also says I'm pear-shaped, which explains why I'm two inches smaller in the waist, but have only lost 1/2 an inch in the hips.

    This is neat! I picked the 3rd body and said i was spot on. "You are the perfect pear."
    Idk if a pear shaped body is perfect but at least i can kinda tell where i'm at.

    Me too. It says I'm 25% smaller than what I chose but I still don't see it. I can maybe see that I picked too high, but I still say they picked too small. Am I really that hard on myself?

    That was interesting. I picked the second to last one on the right and ended up being the 4th one from the left. I'm 25% smaller than I think I am... very eye opening for me.

    This was interesting. I was Exactly what I thought I looked like, but a pear.
    I always thought I was an hourglass, but I am carrying a bunch more weight on my lower tummy at the moment, in a way that I didn't before I had babies.
    It will be interesting to see if my 'shape' changes when I reach goal - bookmarking this site to check later in the year!

    This is a really interesting little tool. I was only 2.5% off, but still smaller than I think I am!

    I was 15% off...smaller than I think I am. This makes me feel good even though the measurements did not (first time I did measurements).
