    Now fat. Naturally thick. By thick I mean that no matter how thin or athletic I get, I do not easily cut in the sense that I have defined abs.

    "Anyway, I remember when I first started wearing "plus-size" I went to Macy's to buy some jeans. I asked the sales person "What does the W stand for in the sizes..." womens"?" I was flabbergasted when she said: "No, it stands for "WIDE". OMG."

    Um. Sounds like someone was just being mean. "W" stands for Women's like "P" stand for petite. Clothes marked with a W have more generous seam allowances and usually have a few more inches of fabric through the chest and hips.

    You don't have to be overweight to like the way a Women's cut piece of clothing fits. I know plenty of average weighted women who have very full/hourglass shapes and have trouble finding clothes their size that aren't too small in those areas.

    As to my own body type I don't know how to describe it. My weight is pretty evenly distributed all over. Think best shape that describes me right now is square :(

    Any ideas on what body shape a 34-29-39 is? It seems somewhere between a pear and an hourglass...:indifferent:

    Pear, because your hips are much larger than your bust. For an hourglass they should be nearly equal.

    Reading the other thread gave me a headache :grumble: , I couldn't even go pass the second page :laugh: ...But I "use" to describe my body type as hourglass but yea I don't think so anymore..I think since I have gained weight, I have become more of a pear shaped.

    that other thread was awful...I get upset when ppl start saying thin ppl can't have curves, and I also hate the negativity toward bigger ppl as well. Why can't we (all being on a fitness website) try to accept the individual shapes ppl are trying to embrace--as long as they are healthy?:) Be positive is all.

    Where did it say thin people can't have curves? And why was the thread awful? It has nothing to do with accepting or not accepting people's individual shapes - it was about mislabelling.

    I'm fat all over. Is there a body type that describes that? I always referred to myself as an apple, but I feel more like the Michelen man right now. I definitely have a huge stomach though, so I'm likely an apple.
  • I have no idea, I find it hard to judge and my husband is too scared to tell me :laugh:

    I think I'm probably a bit of a pear - I'm quite small on top but carry weight on my tummy and thighs, and when I lose weight, my boobs get smaller and smaller while my tummy stubbornly stays as it is. I always feel that if I lost weight round my middle at the same rate as my my top half, I'd be a total skeleton on top!
