After checking out that article, those were my EXACT thoughts. I'm still not sure though. I also empathize with sunbun. I can wear size 12/14 bottoms but medium tops. Fat bottomed girl problems. Ironic that queen just came on my Pandora

hourglass. i dont need measurements to tell but they are 40-32/33-40 which sounds straight shaped but i look in the mirror i look like im always in a tight laced corset, its actually kinda scary looking. i think the mirrors your best answer cause it really depends on the body what shape the inches will give you ie you can be wide hiped and flat butted or broad chest but flat boobed. my waist is broader than the traditional hourglass but where my waist sits it looks as though im in a permanent corset. freaks me out. its possible that shape will get worse too cause my waist carries all my weight now where my chest and hips have little to go.

I'm 40-34-42 right now, after baby. (In high school I was 34-26-36. Sigh) Does that make me a pear?

I have always identified myself as a Pear. The links above suggest that I've been mostly right, but that I am actually somewhere between a Pear and a Skittle.

I've been an apple for as long as I can remember...but as I'm losing weight, I think I'm more of a banana, on her way to possibly being an hourglass??? One can hope! lol

I'm an apple when I'm 250lbs, a pear starting from 200lbs, and a banana under 120 lbs (yes I'm a yo yo dieter, but this time is the LAST!)

I'm more of an apple/ oval... my boyfriend actually made the apple reference when we were talking the other day and I HATE being compared to an apple! I'm sure I will be more of an hour glass typed shape since I never seem to lose weight in my breasts... we shall see!
