You're clearly an hourglass. Until reading this thread, I didn't think it was difficult to figure out.

I think I'm hourglass, but not short 5'9, 34-25.5-35.5

I'm 5'4"
41, 35, 46

I have lost an inch off my waist and hips since I started MFP! no specific goal, I'd like to get down to size 12 though (currently 16-18).

I love my shape, but it is hard to find clothes that flatter the hourglass, sometimes I look like I'm all boobs.
Any suggestions?

Currently:
Bust 36
Waist 25
Hip 37

Goal (around the same as I was in my avatar):
Bust 35
Waist 24
Hip 36

I tend to look a little straight though since my bottom measurement is most influenced by my rear protruding outward (bubble butt), not hip width.

I will note, Apple Bottom jeans are the most comfortable and flattering jeans I have found, and Fashion Bug jeans have been a close 2nd (plus size). Because I am big on top and have broad shoulders I have found tank tops with a wide shoulder band and tops with long short-sleeves and large-ish necks to be most flattering.

I am, but you can't see it right now haha. I don't know my measurements though. I need to lose about 15 inches on these hips though!

What is considered hour glass?

Im almost 5'7

bust 36-38d
waist 33
hips 41

would like to be:
bust 36-38d
waist 27-29
hips 39-40

what weight got you under a 30 inch waist? anyone?

Even at my highest weight (nearly 180) my waist did not exceed 30 inches, in fact I am not sure it passed 28ish -- but I am VERY hourglassy (I don't gain or lose much to my waist, it's all in the bust/hips). I am 5'4".

---ahhh lucky you, i ge t some major sweating to do to burn those inches off my waist and get under 30. thanks

Last time I had a 30 inch waist (or a little under) was when I was about 180-185 or so. I am 5'4.5"

Your mileage may ary.

Someone on here said I was pear and not hourglass but I just read a few things that said shoulder measurements are a more accurate indicator? My shoulders are a similar width to my hips. I don't mind being a pear, but I just don't know if I am. Not all hourglasses have a big bust, do they?

I dunno, this just doesn't seem 'pear' to me. It's pretty proportioned. Can someone please clarify for me?



And



(Excuse the fatness :sad: )

5'4" Hourglass:

-bust (largest point)- 39
-waist (smallest point) - 28
-hips (largest point) - 41

These have probably changed, I am not exactly sure when I took them. I ALWAYS lose from my waist first.


Last time I was my ideal weight i was somewhere around 35/25/36, and that would be a great place to get to again .

Wow your body sounds so similar to mine before my kids! lol I was 39-27-41 after I lost weight in high school and loved it! I'm jelly :]

When I worked out in high school I started around 39(36B)-32-42 at maybe 165lbs? I worked out on the treadmill mostly and the elliptical, bike, as well as bench press with my legs (about 100lbs to start and worked my way up). I was 145 within about two months and my measurements were 39(36B)-27-40/41 I can't remember if it was 40 or 41 for the hips to be honest with you :]
P.S.
I was 181 a few weeks ago and I measured 44.5-34-44.5 so I don't know how people were 180 with a tiny waist..unless they have an extremely large toosh and hips and breasts lol OR it could be since I have a large face that my measurements stay large because I am skinny when I'm 145lbs. Well anyways I am an average sized person in the toosh, my hips are large and my breasts are 36D/36DD.

5'1"
measurements= 33, 24, 35 at 116lbs
goal= 33, 22-3, 34 at about 105 (my 'race weight' for when I start half marathon training)

I was there at Thanksgiving-Christmas, but then I stopped working as hard for the new year -_-'
