I'm leaning towards pear. Really wanna know what I'm gonna be left with when I lose some more body fat!
I'm 5ft 4in and 137 pounds in this pic, down from 189 so major improvement but still embarrassed by the pic ha

Heres a calculator for anyone wanting to know theirs. Mine said hourglass but I think thats taking my love handles into consideration that will hopefully be GONE soon!

    I vote hourglass. "Love handles" aside, you're still pretty symmetrical top and bottom, with a nicely defined waist.

    I'd say hourglass too. Even once you lose your love handles you still got your hips and I'm guessing a booty on you. So, hourglass.

    I'm hoping to build some nice round firm glutes!! It's not very pronounced right now but I think I've got enough to work with :-D

    No need to be embarrassed! I vote with the others. Hour glass for sure. You're waist is really defined, love grips and all! You've done so well! Congrats (:

    My vote is hourglass. You're looking hot already! No worries.
    You'd probably have some "saddlebags" if you were a pear! You're weight looks pretty evenly distributed to me.

    I'm currently at 150 and my goal weight is 137. I'm also 5'4" so I think you look fabulous!!! No matter what shape you are :) Embrace those curves, girl. That's what makes us WOMEN!!

    I'm a pear and we tend to carry our weight in our hips and really in the thighs. I just loooove my saddlebags. NOT! You definitely look like an hourglass to me.

    I'd say hourglass...at 189 lbs were you a pear? I always thought it depends on where you gain the weight.

    What are your measurements for bust and hips? Generally, pears will have a smaller bust measurement and a larger hip measurement, even if their waist is defined.

    For example, someone with a 34" bust and 40" hips would generally be considered a pear whereas someone with 34" bust and 34" hips is hourglass (as long as their waist is defined).

    I vote Hourglass....the most desirable shape for a sexy woman - lucky you!
    Clothes with pinched in waists will flatter you and make the boys double take.
    50's fashion - adorable, is your best friend.
    Always show off your curves!

    I can't really tell from the photo how big your bust is. If it's big then hourglass, if small then pear.
