I need opinions on what body shape I have. I added a link for the picture.
I've lost 75lbs and had a baby so it's slightly less than perfect ;)

What do you guys think?

    TLDR. I think you shouldn't worry about what other's think. Good luck with your trolling.

    Great job on your loss! I like this calculator: http://shopyourshape.com/calculate-your-body-shape/ It gives you suggestions about flattering clothes for your shape, which I really needed.

    I have tried a few different sites with that calculator and I get different answers!

    Yes. I've done that as well. I like that one because it gives me a pretty realistic shape, although their body shape descriptions are ridiculous. The description says I most likely have a rounded bottom (nope--flat as a pancake--just have wide hip bones) and that my upper body is proportionate to my shapely legs (nope-very short torso with long, skinny legs).

    Some of the calculators I've done are just flat out wrong--my hips are 9.5" bigger than my waist & my bust is 13.5" bigger than my waist. Some calculators say I'm a rectangle--how is that even possible? So, the calculators that make more sense make me either an hourglass or an inverted triangle. When I'm looking at clothing recommendations, I usually look to the hourglass suggestions. The inverted triangle suggestions are usually more geared toward broader shoulders rather than a large bust & my shoulders aren't broad in proportion to my hips, so those things don't always work out for me. Any of the calculators are just going to give you a starting point. I basically just had to go start trying things on--even stuff that I wouldn't have thought would be flattering.
