    I am the very definition of a pear. I think my last measurements were 35-30-44, and that was a loss of 3 inches up top and .5 inch in the hips. Makes buying jeans impossible, but other than that I don't mind too much.

    @shammxo you are like a mini-pear! If you are a pear at all. ;)

    Pear, with a slight hourglass. When I lose the 25-30 lbs, I would almost have the body of J Lo. Big booty, small top with tiny waist.

    I'm a pear but I do also have somewhat of an hourglass figure despite my size. Can you be more than one?

    Same here. Thighs and butt are the last place I will lose. I have never had the thigh gap.

    I'm a pear shape. Last time I checked my measurements I was around 34 up top, 27 at my waist and 38 at my hips! My hips are huge. Wish I had a little more up top but I guess that's what Victoria's Secret is for! :)

    Sure. No one is every built the same so we are a mixture of different shapes

    I am a pear, but I am not small chested. ALL my weight goes straight to my hips, thighs and calves. My face, arms, collarbone and waist are the first things to go when I lose weight and the last to gain. If you cut me in half, I'm like two completely different people..lol. Which is why I love maxi dresses since they hide the whole bottom making me appear a lot thinner then I really am..lol.

    I have never checked my measurements.. . Although I have only 5'2" and Very large. So I define it as a very large rectangle. Def not attractive...but I'm working on it. :)

    I'm a pear shape, for sure... Always have been, even when I weighted 125 lbs (measurements THEN were 34-26-38)... Small upper body, tiny waist, and big hips, booty, and thighs. Even at my current weight, to see my from the front, it's obvious lol :flowerforyou:

    Before gaining weight (in the process of losing it & half way there already) I am definatly an hour glass. I had a 26 waist 36 chest and 38 hips. if you are a true hourglass shape it hard to find things that really compliment your body. i would google clothes that flatter the hourglass shape, that helped me a lot. i was picking clothes for a long time that made me look way big because of my bust size (DD). since learning what shirts and jeans to wear, people think i dropped more weight just because i changed my style. lol

    Well I guess based on that reference on page 6 I'm an hourglass, but more on the pear side. 35", 26", 37"

    Mid-rise jeans every time. Same for pears. That way they aren't too big around the waist.

    I really haven't had trouble finding flattering clothing for my hourglass shape. You just have to know your body. The older you get, the easier it gets.

    I used to be more hourglass, with a slightly bigger glass on the bottom(talking only 2" difference than my chest), sadly now more pear. I liked having the slight hourglass shape where I had a defined dipped in waist. Every shape can be beautiful. I know apple shapes who have killer legs I envy, pear shapes that have perfect arms...All shapes are ideal in someone's eyes :bigsmile:

    That's considered pear-shaped.

    I've always suspected I might be a pear, but since I've lost a couple inches from my bust, I'm pretty much straight up pear now. Measurements are currently about 31-24-34. I'd really like to lose a little more from my butt and thighs, but I'm starting to come to terms with my pear shape. Pears are pretty awesome, because we have a low risk for heart disease associated with carrying excess belly fat.
