true hourglass figures

I'm an hourglass and am dropping weight relatively fast and was wondering if any other true hour glasses have experienced the same? I had read that our shape gains and loses the fastest and want to see how true it is. So,please, if you are not a true hourglass shape (and many on here who claim to be, when looking at their pictures clearly aren't) refrain from commenting if you can.

Thank you

    What do you mean? It's a legitimate question that I'm wondering if its close to true.

    What is your perception of a "true hourglass figure"?

    one of my friends on here is so I know what you mean, but no, a pound is a pound is a pound. But I will say hourglass figures still look pretty even at high weights and my friend who has lost about 40 got a significantly more pronounced hourglass figure from losing that much. But she isn't losing FASTER than my other friends.

    I'm not really sure what 'true hourglass' means, can you explain? Sorry, I have heard the term but don't know the exact definition.

    Hopefully I'll find out in a minute if I'm a true hourglass or not, whether I am or not I'd like to offer a quick comment - body shape really shouldn't affect how quickly you lose weight - it's all about the calorie deficit created through intake and exercise. It may possibly *show* more quickly on certain shapes, maybe depending on the way your weight is distributed, but it should change the actual rate at which you are able to gain/lose. :-)

    lucky. i'm at best a silly mix of pear/hourglass. true hourglasses are rare. equal bra and hip measurements and small waist. the smaller waist size would be my dream. mine can't get under 26" without force or surgery. blah. lucky duckys are the hourglass girls.

    I've been told I'm hourglass...then I've been told I'm pear...I don't care what shape I am, just as long as I can lose the extra fluff I strangely acquired.

    hourglasses have at least 9" difeerence between their bust and waist measurements, same with hips and waist and bust nd hips are similar in measurements.

    Would you like me to post my picture so you can tell me if I am a "true hour glass" or a pseudo hour glass?

    what I have read is an hourglass figure is determined by your chest measurements being the same as your hip measurements and that your chest be 6 inches from your waist and that your waist be 6 inches from your hips, I am not sure how many women fall into this category but I think a lot of women have an hourglass looking shape without fitting what is considered to be "true"
    Anyhow I don't think that there is a whole lot of validity to your question about quicker weight loss for women who have these dimensions. :smile:

    What if you have plastic surgery to increase your bust? Then do you count as an hourglass?

    Same question for butt implants.
