I would call myself a pear but other people tell me I'm an hourglass. Guess those push up bras really fool the outside world

I'm an hourglass with the sand stuck in the middle.

It's slowly starting to go away........ I think there is a hole somewhere.

i like that thought all we have to do is get than sand unstuck!

Love this!

These always confuse me!

But if I look at it simplistically, I was an apple when I was obese. Now I'm more of a banana (or ruler as some sites call it).

Apple

lots of great posts everyone thanks for sharing

Bwahahaha..."Is potato an option?" I love it!
I consider myself to be human shaped, but according to my favorite online dress store, I am an hourglass. I can't complain I guess, except that I'd like to be maybe a half-hourglass.

never could figure this out... somewhere between hourglass and pear

I'm very pear shaped; when I am actually at a decent weight, it's very apparent.

When I was at a lower weight (high school and college) I was very pear shaped. Thighs and bottom.

As I gained more and more, my belly began to grow, too. After my pregnancy, it became more prominent and I gained a panniculus.

As I lose, my belly shrinks slowly but I figure my pear shape will remain. And my panniculus. *sigh*

I hear ya.

I'm not googling panniculus! I learned enough googling fupa!!

It's safer I swear. It's the big low overhang of belly, sometimes called mother's apron.

I'm definitely a pear. 41-34-48.
