So my boyfriends mother and I are trying to lose weight. I noticed that she doesn't really have a gut like I do, but has HUGE hips. I asked her about it and she said it's because she is pear shaped and I am more an apple shape. So I went home and looked it up.

I am such a pear lol. But I think I have the potential to move more towards the hourglass side0

I've always been a pear, even as a skinny teenager, but I think I might leaning towards hourglass now. My shoulders and hips are about the same width.0

I have to buy pants to fit around my bottom that are too big in the waist. I have a small top half. My biggest complaint about my body is my butt is too big to have boobs this small. :happy:0 -

It's an interesting article, but leads to confusion for me. Before I lost weight, I qualified as an apple. Now, I am definitely pear-shaped by the article's definition. I apparently lose and gain weight around my waist quickly. But I don't really lose off of my hips, which is why my ratio changed drastically in just 23 lbs. I went from .857 to .716.0

Another pear here!0

I'm an Oval. Would be an apple, but I got BUTT!0

I'm technically an apple, but I feel like I'm a little bit of both, since my weight gain area is from below my chest to my thighs..... When I was skinny, I was a pear..... Can't wait to get back there!0
