    I am, I love my shape. I may pay in a couple of years for a bit of uh.. surgial enchancement on top but I do like the way I'm put together. The closer I get to my goal the more I realize that being pear shaped doesn't have to mean fat thighs and love handles. It means looking daaaaaaaaaaaaang good in jeans.

    pear shaped. not sure I like it, but i am definitely trying to love my body the way it is. it wasn't as much of a problem when i was smaller but as i gain weight i notice it more and more.

    i am so pear shaped. soo pear shaped. im 5'6 and at my thinnest weight my ribs were showing and my arms were tiny and i still wore a size 6-7. the pear shape does not go away no matter what i do. it's not just fat, i feel as if my body is literally structurally shaped that way. maybe that's crazy

    sometimes i feel good about it other times i wish i had no hips and was narrow like a boy. meh we all want what we cant have right?

    I am surely more happy being a pear than I would be if I was an apple....:laugh:

    I agree with this article for the most part. Slim your bottom through diet and exercise, then lift heavy with arms and shoulders to increase make yourself appear more hourglass-shaped. That's my goal anyway. I could bench press 200 pounds when I was younger. I am slowly working back up to that. :smile:

    I love my shape. I just hate trying to buy jeans because the waist gap is not the business and I've never been a fan of belts. Other than that I love my shape. I wouldn't want to change it for anything.

    The easiest solution? Get a tailor to take it in. :) It usually is pretty cheap and a quick fix. Check at the dry cleaners.
