    I was pretty close- only 2.5% off, but it was still eye opening for me :)

    I actually love that!

    I guessed 12.5% bigger than I am, which showed 2 dress sizes across.

    Another really great website to look for women who are the same size as you is: http://www.mybodygallery.com/

    I agree about this site! I browse the images there for my current size and my goal size.. so I can try and get my head around it, like anything it is generalised - just like the site I posted but if it makes you stop and think for a few moments about how you see yourself and what you think your body looks like, then its done its job :)

    I am blown away by the responses - fantastic to see so many ladies giving it a go - proud of you all for at least thinking about it!

    I can't get the page to open...how frustrating. It says the server isn't responding. Perhaps it doesn't like Aussies. Haha.

    ETA: Got it working! 7.5% smaller than I actually am and 'the perfect hourglass'...wow. What an absolutely incredible website.

    oh wow!! i guessed myself as 17.5% larger than it says I am - I knew I didn't see myself quite right, but that is a significant difference.. makes me a little disappointed at myself, but I guess that's why one particular work colleague keeps trying to get me to see the difference in photos etc.

    Me too my hubby NAILED it. :smile: :heart: him. It was interesting, but I do agree with the other posters that said it's not truly accurate (obviously) because the models are probably tall or at least not BARELY 5 feet like me. :laugh:

    I got it right. Funny though, I still want it to be different.

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

    ....I seen myself 5% smaller than what I actually am...kind of concerning. :( I don't really know what to think about this,..

    This is so interesting! I chose #9. I am actually #8. I showed my husband all the pictures without telling him which one I was and he swore I was #7!!! Crazy how twisted our perceptions are.

    Whoa, I was 27.5% smaller than I thought (as a side note: I clicked 4 for self esteem)...I was so "proud" of the body shown, that when my husband got home from work, I had him do it. I did not show him my choice or my results...It was very cool of him to pick a body type smaller than I picked, but when I "proudly" typed in my measurements (taken at the beginning of the month, and I do think I'm smaller now) and clicked next - the only remark he made was, "you're not that small." Now, any self esteem I had is just deflated. :frown:

    thank for posting this! I guessed 15% too big. I had my husband guess and he picked the exact one that I really am! It just goes to show you we really do perceive ourselves much bigger than others see us.
  • I guessed myself 7.5% bigger than I am. Pretty neat site!

    I guessed 12.5% too big; I've always been aware that I see myself too big. Probably something I need to work on; thanks for the website!!!

    I guessed 25% bigger. I don't think I agree with that, but it was kinda interesting.
