Hey Ladies,
I've always had the curse of the "apple" shape body type, or rather, my weight tends to stick more around my stomach and torso than anywhere else. Never quite understood why we had to name our bodies after fruit, but I digress. I'd really love to see your before & afters if you had a similar body type! I need some inspiration to get going.

I think its maybe weird because after people lose weight they don't look like an apple? I'm all belly....like ALL belly. My legs are like 2-3 pants sizes smaller than my "waist" aka pudge. I'm broad chested and hold weight in my arms too. GRRRR.1

I am still very much a work in progress and have lost about 6 pounds these were taken, but this is what a 15-pound loss looked like on my apple shape. I don't look too much like an apple any longer, I would like to think I look more like an hourglass now. I ate slightly above my BMR and took up weight training. That's how I did it
I'm 5'5''8 -
Here's my before @ 275
At -40lbs
At -70lbs
I have another 40 I'd like to lose, and we'll see from there.0 -

Amazing work!! You look wonderful!0 -
Those of you who have posted pics - you look amazing! Definitely gives me hope - my waist is the one area I really struggle with. I do quite a lot of running but have started mixing it up with some Jillian Michaels DVDs and weight training, hoping that will help to reduce my waist!0

Thanks for the inspiration! I am also cursed with the apple shape. My weight collects around the bust, stomache and linebacker shoulders I'm still trying to lose weight but I can see changes in my body. It's going very slowly.0

Wow, You must be soooo proud of what you have done for yourself. You look beautiful. :flowerforyou:1

I don't have pics but I have lost a total of 12 lbs this year, some of it before I joined MFP, and it feels like most of it has come off around my legs, so I am more of an apple than ever. SO frustrating! I wish I could lose 0 more pounds from my legs, butt and hips, and lose it all from my chest, stomach, and arms. But - not going to happen.1
