Pear shaped women

ELee0517

Here's a picture from a few weeks ago that shows just why I can't wear a bikini... :sad:

Call me crazy, but I don't think that's pear shaped at all.

I'm 5'4", 151lbs, 35-29-39. And big thighs too. I have between D-DD cup, so that helps to even it out a bit. But my hips & thighs are my major problem areas. I rarely wear bathing suits in public and never wear shorts.

The skirt helps hide it. My problem is that my upper body is sooooo small (I'm rocking a very small B cup up top) and then I have a huge waist and thighs. At least you have the proportionate cup size to even you out. I envy you...

I've always been told that I'm pear shaped:


Height: 4'9
Weight: 97 lbs
Chest: 28 in
waist: 26 in
Hips: 32 in

The first thing my husband ever said about my body was that I had amazing baby bearing hips

That's funny! My husband loves my big ol' booty! He's actually kinda sad that it's shrinking, lol!

I used to be more pear than that but my butt has gotten smaller What's wrong with being a pear? It's the next best thing to hourglass. I don't have much going on up on top, so I'm happy with being a pear. If I lost my butt I'd be sad.

Pears are the best shape, nothing wrong with a good size butt and hips. Who want's to have a flat butt anyway?

Haha, the funny thing is, I have never had a butt! I can only fill the back of my pants out when I'm pregnant.

Have you tried a different suit? I would think that type of top would be less flattering. I just got a new bikini and I love it! Maybe the problem is not your cup size, maybe the band. I am a b cup and I feel like my boobs look nice in my new bikini. It is the string around and tie string with the triangle shaped cups. Try on some new suits. Don't mess with a skirt.

Trust me, I want to keep my butt! I just hate that my upper half is so small!

I think you're right. I was looking it up last night and I need to just try a different style. I think my breasts are too small for a normal bathing suit top though. That one was supposed to be a push up. :sad: :ohwell:

I am looking for other pear shaped women to help me with motivation. I'm afraid that no matter how much I lose, I will always look big due to my large hips and small bust. Can anyone out there help me out with some pictures? I want to know that my curse will not keep me from looking good in a bikini soon...

You can see an example of just how pear shaped I am in my profile pictures. But for those who want to compare measurements, here they are:

Height: 5'5
Weight: 139.5
Chest: 34
Natural waist: 29
Hips: 39
Thighs: 22.5
Arms: 10.5

So as you can tell by my measurements, I am just about as pear shaped as they come. Please tell me I'm not the only one! :sad:

We have the exact measurements with height and body parts down to the 1/2", except I'm at 137(not far at all)! I'm not super confident in a bikini yet but when I got down to around 125 I looked good (now looking at pictures. I didn't think so then of course). At 125 I had the "amazing thigh gap," due to wide hips, that everyone seems to lust over while keeping a butt. As far as what kinds of bikinis, I wear the tops from victoria's secret that kind of look like bras since it tends to balance my top to my bottom, and for the bottoms I wear anything that ties on the side so it doesn't give me a muffin top. Maybe that will flatter you as well?

I know that feeling @ 5'8 159lbs
chest:34'
waist-29.5
hips- 41.0

But to be honest, our lower half look great in jeans
You just need to look around and try on different swim suits
maybe try finding a bathing suit with a bit more padding

danahake

Well I am definately pear shaped. I wear a c cup, have a smaller waist and wider hips and butt. Consider curves sexy. Look at JLo for example. Sexy.. and Honey yes wear a bikini, have seen some people who wear them. Youll look fine. : ) Look at my profile picture and I like the way my legs look here. But losing a few wouldnt hurt either, that is why I am here. Good luck..

annabellj

if I can wear one you can~ my hips are bigger than yours! you look way better than me~

I'm a terrible pear. 33in chest with a 32 AAA bra. I was wearing size 8 tops and size 14 bottoms. Now it's size 10 bottoms. Still the 8 tops because I can't possibly loose any more up top without cutting off bones. However, Since I've been focusing on strength training, the hips are more curvy than flabby, the butt is still big but it too is higher and more curvy, and my arms and shoulders are getting thicker with muscle instead of skin and bones. I like the way my body is beginning to balance out. THERE IS HOPE!! And I have to rock bikinis because I'm not only a pear but long in the torso and 1 pieces just don't fit me right (but I wear board shorts) THis year I will TOTALLY rock the itty bitty teeny weeny brown poka dot bikini.

Pear shape Rocks ladies!!!

Another Pear Woman here:
5'8"
150 lbs
34 chest
27.5 waist
40 hips

sometimes I think about having the bottom half sucked out, but I just keep working hard and accept what I am, maybe I'll get down a few more inches.

kayleesays

I haven't taken my measurements in a LONG time, but I think they're near...

5' 5.5''
CW 142
GW 134-136
Chest 34
Waist 27-28
Hips 37+?

I really should find a measuring tape, ha.

Does anybody else have a really big rib cage? Being pear-shaped with a large rib cage means that I look skinner than I am because my ribs start to poke out, regardless of my weight.

I'm a pear, but more of an hourglass.

I, personally, think pear and hourglass are the most attractive and feminine body shapes to have.

Would you rather a boyish or an apple shaped figure?

ETA: From your pics, your hips don't look that wide?

!!!!

My hips are going down, slowly but surely... I have genetics that prevent these nasty saddle bags from ever going away without artificial intervention, and if the day ever comes that I'm at goal weight and tone, I will take that step, but not while i still have 20lb to go and lots of squats left in me..
