    My first guess for my size was actually right, but I decided before proceding that it looked too small to be me so guaged up. My problem with my image is that I *still* see myself as the size 10/12 that I used to be, because my top half hasn't changed much - it's not til I see pictures of myself I realise that actually, yes you really are 3 stone heavier and it's all from your waist down!

    Am I the only one who was spot on? Makes me feel I have a bit too much confidence...

    Pretty interesting. I actually guessed down 3 sizes on purpose because I know that I don't see myself as I am. And even with that, I was still off 15% off. Thanks for sharing the link

    I guessed 22.5% bigger than I am.

    I don't really find this accurate, because they are all the same body type, so I went with the body that had the widest hips since I'm a pear. Those models are not pears IMO. You should have to pick the model from the body shape you are. A size 16 apple, looks very different than a size 16 pear or hourglass.

    Just my thoughts.

    I guessed 2.5% larger, so pretty objective :) Also, came back as hourglass, which is always nice to hear.

    "you are exactly what you think you are..."

    Now is that good or bad, I wonder...

    I think it's a great thing. i think that being off isn't bad either. But does anyone think that it may indicate some sort of disconnect or even mild body dysmorphia?

    I got it spot on as well. Not over-confident, just realistic about exactly where my thighs meet :laugh:

    40% smaller than I think I am. Worrying because last time it was only 30something% and I've lost weight since then.
