Ok, I am sure everyone and their brother ask this question but I have compared and compared and I am still not sure. :/

What body type would you say I am. When I was 100 pounds overweight I looked like a big blob, so I would have said orange(I know this isn't really a type), lol. But now that I am starting to take a shape I go back and forth.

Anyone care to take a shot at it?

    Hard to tell with the pic, but looks like you carry your weight in your tummy like me, it's called apple shaped!

    I would agree. Looks like you don't have big hips.

    I'm an hourglass...I think

    I'm not a fruit guy but you may want to wear a more snug top and bottom to reveal your shape. The top, in particular, seems very loose.

    Ok, I took that test and it said I was a "spoon". Wth, lol, I didn't even know that was an option.

    I will post a better picture later, and try to resize it to fit. :)

    Looks like an apple...If you are an Apple while Big,You are an apple while small..Just a smaller apple.

    Looks like you carry you weight in your Tummy/Upper body with slimmer hips and legs.

    Confirmed I'm a pear. Although the two comparison pictures looked almost identical to me - if I would have picked the other one I would be a spoon.

    Small boobs???? Last I checked a 36 DD wasn't small. lol But everything else you described sounds like me.

    It says I'm a pear so I'm cool with that since Beyoncé is as well :wink:

    I need to post a different pic, I always feel like my hips are big. I have large thighs too. :/

    That body type calculator says my shape is unavailable and does not fall into any of the categories. Guess they really did throw out the mold when they made me :noway:

    Difficult to tell because you are wearing a loose stripy top so optical illusions play a role: try wearing something plain and fitted that doesn't blend into the background. What is your waist to hip ratio?
