    I think I would be an "apple" if I got much bigger, WebMD classified me as a rare breed, an "avocado." Meaning I gain weight in my middle and hips and thighs--LUCKY ME! LOL. When skinny (it's been a while) I'm more of an hourglass...but right now I'm just "thick." Bagh!

    *sigh* I'm an apple too. I'm top heavy. All my weight is in my breast, stomach, back and arms. My legs are thick because I used to run but my bottom is smaller than my top. My waist/ab/torso is kind of "boxy" and I read to get our waist to go in we shouldn't do reg crunches, we need to do twisting abd exercise to get our waist in. I'm going to try that and see what happens. I want to try strength training but don't know which one to try. I, too, was/is afraid of looking boxy up top because of lifting. :grumble: I've lost 22pds and I can't see it although my clothes fit looser. *sigh*

    Try it all! Weight lifting is fun and it's awesome watching your body change.

    AND there are weighted twists you can do!!

    That's the motivation you need to drop the lbs....or build muscle. To get that hour glass figure back.....I like that figure the best :)

    My profile pic shows me on 1st April at 145lbs(left) and on 30th April(right) at 142.8lbs. I'm 5ft 2 and my goal weight is 129lbs (I reset my ticker every 5lbs or so). I can't post pics, but if you go to my profile and look at my photos, you'll see a pic of me at my heaviest weight of 191lbs. I looked more like a watermelon than an apple though! ;D

    Thank you! My stomach is still in need of toning. It's getting better though, especially with every pound now it's making a difference. I think it has to do with the elasticity of your skin and how well it will bounce back. But working on your stomach through out your weight loss will definitely help you. I wish I started earlier lol.

    When you say "working on your stomach" what kind of things are you referring to?
