    I'm 7.5% smaller than I thought and I guessed low as my OH always says I'm smaller than I think!! I just took my jeans out of the dryer and thought they'd shrunk but apparently they really were that small. I've gone from a UK 18 to a 10, 76lb lost and I really don't think my brain has caught up yet lol

    That was really neat and insightful on how I view my own body. I guess it's hard to see that changes sometimes when you have been big for so long.

    I guessed myself (12.5% smaller) 2.5 sizes too big. Had no idea I was an hourglass.

    I'm 32.5% smaller than I think. I don't think it's right though, I picked the one who does look a lot like me, pear shape with still extra weight. It puts me between the first two, and that's just not right. I do have a perfect pear, but there's no denying that with my super hips.

    27.5% smaller than I thought?! Wow!!!
    This was definitely a confidence booster (And I already thought I had high self esteem) :blushing:

    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.

    Yep....went up a size...otherwise would have been spot on. Just the conversation that I had with a friend this morning. I look in the mirror and don't see the changes - well, I do - but not as drastic as people around me seem to imply. I did go from a Canadian 16 to 12 (shooting for that 10 soon).

    I guessed three sizes larger than I am. Then I did it again with the same start point but entered my measurements from January (regretting not having started measurements sooner) and was spot on. I guess my brain hasn't caught up yet!

    Great site!

    I guessed 2.5% bigger than I am and just half a size out - and I deliberated quite a while on those sizes - and an hourglass. I tried to look very objectively - and ordinarily I'd've put myself as larger but just over the last few months have noticed that Yes, I really DO have a waist now. I found it easier to choose body size & shape by looking at the size of the models' arms..

    Thanks for posting - a really good confidence boost!!

    I am 7.5% smaller than I think I am! Was interested to see that they say I am a pear shape. I often wondered what body shape I am, because when you are so overweight you are just kinda big all over and theres no distinct shape. Should have known though as my butt has always been out of proportion to the rest of me! lol

    Cool website!

    I was spot on also. Very aware of what I look like and what I would like to change. As you can tell from the banner, I'm at the beginning of the journey. I wonder if my perception will change as I lose weight.

    Have a super Wednesday!

    Guessed myself 2.5% larger. Almost chose spot on, but thought I wasn't quite that small just yet. Pleasant surprise :) Also, according to my measurements, I have an hourglass shape! Sounds good to me!!!
