    Okay, I understand a lot of people think that the whole fruit labeling thing is stupid. But they're just small names for certain body types. I'm asking what my body type is. "Why does it matter"? Well, a lot matters. Your shape corresponds with your body TYPE. Ectomorphs, mesomorphs, endomorphs. There are certain diets & exercises that improve aspects of your body.

    I honestly didn't post this thread for people to ask me why.. lol. Sorry if I seem annoyed, I just came here for simply "apple" or "banana"

    Thanks.


    No, hourglasses have a waist measurement that is 9+ inches smaller than their hips and bust. Mine is only 4. Bananas usually have the same measurements in those areas, and 32 is close to 36. Hourglass is more like 36-27-36. I WISH I was an hourglass, haha.
    I Would also wait and see when you drop more weight. Your measurements are hourglass. But maybe when more fat comes off you will get a more accurate 'shape'? For instance, my mom was hourglass, but she put on weight and now is more of an apple or pear shape. If she lost she'd get her shape back.

    I think you're an hourglass. Your waist is perhaps not as defined and maybe your hips are a little smaller, but I don't see a banana shape there. Too curvy for banana.

    Your very first forum post. That's a pretty good intro, IMO.

    Bananas can be battery operated.

    OP: you're an hourglass.

    Are you sure you're measuring your waist in the right place? Because you look hourglass. Be sure you're measuring at the smallest part of your waist, where you bend, not at the belly button.

    I think you'd have to be a little bigger on top with more narrow hips to be apple, a little straighter to be banana. You do look pretty proportionate, but still I don't know if I would say hourglass either. Maybe a mix of the three!?

    Wow sickos.. that's my tooth brush. LOL. If I even OWNED one of those, I definitely wouldn't put it on a shelf NEXT to the entrance of my room.

    I can see how the end looked like one, though. :P Plus it was blurry.
