Pear shaped women

You are not alone!

I'm 5'4"
Weight 121
Chest 33
Waist 27
Hips 38!!!!

Sorry got no pics at the moment but following this thred with interest!

I cant tell much about your shape from the photos except you look like a thin healthy woman. Why not just wear the bikini

As far as I'm aware, wide hips are a sign of fertility and are therefore very attractive to men. It doesn't matter what shape you are, if you have a nicely toned body you can wear that bikini for all its worth. Wide hips don't look fat... a large derrier and belly looks fat.
Go for it!

oh, i've got a high bmi shot and a low bmi shot in my pics, and a bikini shot. I personally like the bikini shot.

you will look fine

I'm definitely a pear too! I'm about a size 2/4 on top and 8 on bottom. And the shape becomes more exaggerated with weight gain…my top absolutely refuses to store any fat. I think we just have to focus on getting body fat percentage down, which will help reduce the size of our "storage" areas. Even when I was my normal size (around 130 lbs), I never felt good in a bikini…but I think I could have tried harder to find the right suit for me. There are lots of tricks out there to draw the eye to the top and make the chest area appear larger. I think though, when you are toned and feel great about reaching your goals, you'll have the secret to looking amazing in a bikini…CONFIDENCE!!! :happy:

I'm 34/29/40.

Good luck! 2012 is the year of the bikini for us pears!

I'm definitely pear shaped. I'm starting to wonder if loosing weight will ever change that! :P
Height- 5'2
Weight- 115
Waist- 26
Hips- 38
Thighs- 22

i'm not a pear but beyonce and jlo are good examples of bikini wearing pears

Bump.

I think you're gorgeous! Honestly, when I looked at your pics I was expecting a bit more "junk in the trunk" as they say. lol. You actually appear very streamline to me!

I am 5'7, 130lbs, and measurements (last time I took them was a few weeks ago)
Chest: 32
Waist: 27
Hips: 35

I am very self conscious about my chest - I went from a large C cup to barely an A cup. I was fine having a small chest at first, but once my girls continued to shrink even after I reached my goal weight... well, I won't go into detail, but let's just say they're not as perky as they were about 10lbs ago! lol. I'm saving up for surgery, but I know that isn't for everyone. Like I said, I think you are gorgeous in your pics, so I wouldn't sweat it if I were you!

Pear shapes imo are the next best shapes Although it would be nicer if I could slim down my tummy a bit ^^"
My stats are:
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 119
Bust: 33
Waist smallest: 26.5
Waist navel: 33
Hips: 36

I am looking for other pear shaped women to help me with motivation. I'm afraid that no matter how much I lose, I will always look big due to my large hips and small bust. Can anyone out there help me out with some pictures? I want to know that my curse will not keep me from looking good in a bikini soon...

You can see an example of just how pear shaped I am in my profile pictures. But for those who want to compare measurements, here they are:

Height: 5'5
Weight: 139.5
Chest: 34
Natural waist: 29
Hips: 39
Thighs: 22.5
Arms: 10.5

So as you can tell by my measurements, I am just about as pear shaped as they come. Please tell me I'm not the only one! :sad:

No offence intended, but I fear you have lost your mind.

You are slender, and feminine. You do not have an apple butt, you have a normal female butt. If you compete with the girls who never grew a butt, you will feel fat for life.

But if you accept that God wanted you to have a Hot *kitten*, and that you've probably got shaked up with an *kitten* man and not a tit man - why ruin his day?

Why take away the one thing your husband can't live without?

Honestly child. You're beautiful. Go to a shop that shows you off, embrace your shape and live like you've got the best figure in town. i tell you what, it's too fricking late when you're 42 and you've struggled with your weight all your life, never realising till it's too late that when you were young you were gorgeous and should have been having much more fun. Take it from me, your butt is perfect. For a female of course... not for a teenaged boy.

Oh and just remember those clothing designers are all gay men hot for young boys. Why else would models look so androgynous?

The worst thing About pear shaped for me is that when I start to lose weight it starts at my face and works its way down so now even with seven pounds loss my bust is even smaller so my hips look bigger :sad:
