    I just think the measurements aren't an accurate enough way to define hourglass, though. I mean, Oprah is supposed to be an hourglass, isn't she? She looks apple as eff to me. And, I see body types like the sillouette, and having big boobs doesn't affect the sillouette unless you're standing profile. In which case, it doesn't matter. But, I still maintain it's about proportions.

    Of course, if we're talking traditional definitions. You're 100% correct.

    And thank you! And you're welcome :) I'm sure you carry those 10lbs well ;)

    How do you define an hourglass shape without measurements, though? Of course they matter. Oprah has a very small waist, except when she's been at her very highest weight. She is not an apple at all.

    And on a REAL WOMAN (not the blacked out drawn pictures), the breasts do make the shape. Larger breasts spill over to the side a bit, no matter how good your bra is and especially if you aren't wearing one at all.

    I absolutely am an hourglass and can attest to that. It isn't my shoulders that give me my shape, it's my bust size.

    NOT apple-shaped:

    This doesn't look hourglass to me;

    It's not even pear.

    I don't see how much breasts can spill out to the side to create an hourglass shape, but *shrug*, I know my body shape and I know what I think an hourglass looks like; 'right' measurements or not, so it's all semantics, really.

    I'm not going to argue anymore. You want to make up your own definitions, go ahead.

    I'm hourglass! I have a medium-larger build though. My goal is to be in small tops (mediums now) and size 4/5/6 pants (8/9 now).

    My hips and thighs have some fat they could certainly lose, and love handles. I look really thin from the side, it's my front view that needs trimming.

    I'm not arguing, I'm debating. I'm not making up my own definitions, I'm challenging yours.

    For the record;

    I'm basically hourglass, but a little bottom heavy - not enough to be a pear shape though. I don't know my measurements. It's time to update them.

    tip: get a weighted hula hoop! mine is 2.5 and it HURTS! it helps trim your waist i have heard.

    Thanks!!

    where do you find these? weighted with what? Sand? I''m trying to figure out how they balance the weight differential with the velocity

    I'm about a 40.5" bust, 30" waist, 40" hips. I'd be happy to go down a couple inches in all three of those places :) I'm 5'10.

    I'm pretty much the same as you, but I'm only 5'6. I think my bust might be a slight bit smaller.

    I think I'm hour glass. I'm 5'3 1/2'' and not sure of my measurements right now. Sometimes while looking in the mirror I feel like I'm going towards pear :) my bust area seams a lot smaller, I guess

    I'm an hour glass, but I haven't taken my measurements in forever and I don't weigh myself more than once/month.

    My goal is to be healthy, so I'm not basing my goal OR progress on superficial things. My goals are 1) to workout everyday; 2) eat a healthy diet 80% of the time; and 3) stay under my calorie goal most days per week.

    I'm still working at it. If I'm successful more times than I'm not, then I should lose weight, but I'm trying to stay focused on what's important.
