    In order to have smallish legs my boobs have to go away, my arms must look like tooth picks and you must be able to count my ribs. My pants are always too big around the waist and tight on my thighs. People who wish to be pear shaped instead of apple should think twice.
  • Hi guys

    Try reading Trinnie and Suzzane (may not have spelt correctly), they give fab advise on how to dress for your body shape. Before reading their book I thought there were only three standard shapes, apple, pear and hourglass. This gives some fab ways to determine your shape and how to make the most of what you've been given. Exercise and weight loss may alter things slightly, I carried my weight around boobs and tummy, but I found no matter how much I loose I'm a hidden "pillar" or "Candlestick", broad shoulders and big boobs but thin everywhere else (minus the pounds of course). Okay so I can't change what's hidden underneath but you can dress to what suits you and this can do wonders for confidence. What's the point in striving for the perfect hourglass when you had no hips to begin with. Love the skin your in :smile:

    I have no idea what my body shape is. I have always had a huge butt and hips. I'm 5'4" and even when I weighed 135 lbs I was still in a size 12 pants because my butt was so big. I have small breasts even when I was pregnant they never got bigger than a C-cup. I had a boyfriend when I was 17 that told me I had the body of a cherub :-(. It's always been impossible to buy shirts because if I get them to fit around my stomach, they're huge at the top. Same goes for dresses.

    I have ridiculously big ribs. When I lie on my back they stick out so much that you can sort of get a whole hand around the bottom of each side of my rib cage (I don't know how to explain that properly). But it's not that I'm ridiculously thin - my weight just comes of my ribcage, chest and shoulders first so I'm quite skinny there but the fat around the bottom of my stomach and top of my thighs will not shift. Wish you could choose where to lose fat!!

    I hate my body type, I have flat hips and no chest. Overall size is short and stumpy ><
