Carrying weight differently?

Hi!

My name is Precious and I'm pretty new. :-)

I was just wondering if anyone finds that they carry weight a lot differently than others? For example, I was just in the 5'2 and under thread (I'm 5'3 though) and extremely top heavy (34 JJ) and many of the women who are around my weight of around 195 wear size 16 or so. However, my size ranges from 8, 10 and 12. Mostly 10 though. As I've gained weight over the years, I always notice because my cup size goes up. Does that happen for anyone else? Just a question.

I'm hoping that once I finally lose weight, these things will shrink. :-/

    Not me but yes, many other women are top-heavy. You are not the only one.

    I have what you consider an "android" figure, AKA top heavy. I carry more weight in my upper body as opposed to my lower half. Luckily because my waist dips in and I gain some weight down bellow I don't look extremely morbid and with the right clothes I can pull of an hour glass shape as I have shapely legs. Once I lose weight I usually lose it in my stomach and breasts first and then my thighs. I'm looking forward to looking a lot more proportionate with my weight loss.

    Oh ok, so that's what it's called. An android figure. Good to know. :-)
