    I was a big ol' apple - partly poor diet, partly sitting on my bum, partly PCOS.

    Not quite there yet (and I'm now surprisingly something of a rectangle!) but we can bet the apple :)

    Everyone looks amazing! You give me hope :) I'm losing inches all over but my waist won't bulge and my stomach is so bloated compared to the rest of my body, wah! 24 inch waist, you will be mine.

    Just gonna share my little progress as well. :)

    This isn't a complete before and during. I actually started my weight loss journey in November 2011.

    The first picture was taken back in May and the second photo was taken a couple of days ago.

    This is me at 119 pounds before I got pregnant with my third, I am now 140 and done having kids so my goal weight now is 110 since im young.
    like you can see im an apple shape, you can hardly tell in the picture but I needed a tummy tuck, which im now getting in January. In this picture I still needed to lose 14 pounds or about 11. Im short 5'1.

    Yes you look awesome. It doesn't look like you need a tummy tuck...but I know once you get it, you are going to feel good about it. I would love to have your tummy now.....

    Thanks so much everyone for sharing your pics. I have always been an apple shape, as well.

    What I hate about the "apple shape" is that sometimes you'll get asked if you're pregnant. I've had that happen to me twice.

    I can't seem to find my "before" pics in the bathing suit... but this gives you an idea of how round I am in the tummy/waist, upper body (while staying pretty lean in the legs) when I gain weight. In the Before pic I weigh 137 pounds and in the After pic I weigh 122 pounds. I'm not trying to lose more weight, but am focusing on dropping a little more body fat while keeping my weight the same :-)

    You seem to be more of an "8" or a high-hipped hourglass. I always thought I was an apple too (and 8s can transform into apples at higher weights), but your bone structure suggests more evenness than an apple has. Here's a great link to check out: http://www.insideoutstyleblog.com/2010/05/real-life-body-shapes-8.html

    Thanks for posting this. I looked it up and I'm a "V" shape :-) Although, it seems like the "V" shape is just another term for "apple"... both tend to be wider in the upper half with no real defined waist and slimmer in the hips and thighs.
