(I mean... Where on your body will you find weight to loose?)<br /> Keep well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-341239 Fri, 29 Apr 2011 05:16:54 +0000 ImogenL 341239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From these photos you look like a lovely square shouldered hourglass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337606 Sat, 23 Apr 2011 01:02:07 +0000 alex 337606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Angie, that makes sense. I guess i'd always automatically excluded myself from the hourglass category since I have a small bust. Getting everyones feedback has helped a lot. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337589 Sat, 23 Apr 2011 00:43:59 +0000 Angie 337589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum! </p> <p>You have zero pear body type tendencies. Slim hourglass. Does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337495 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 22:04:16 +0000 firefly 337495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would tend to go with hourglass with a strong shoulder line, or possibly inverted triangle with a defined waist. You have a lovely figure! Welcome to the forum </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337455 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 21:01:34 +0000 catgirl 337455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, you look like an hourglass with secondary IT to me. You look very fit and slim!</p> <p>I have never seen that link, Krishnadoux - so helpful, and many of the things I instinctively try to do (or not do), like surrendering the waist! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337451 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 20:57:50 +0000 krishnidoux 337451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you are a short waisted inverted triangle.<br /> Your waist is high. You are fit and muscular in the legs. You have it all! ;)<br /> As an inverted myself, I found this link previously given on this site quite useful:<br /> <a href="http://www.insideoutstyleblog.com/2008/09/body-shapes-explained-v-shape-inverted.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.insideoutstyleblog......erted.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337448 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 20:49:54 +0000 nancylee 337448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is for very slim hourglass....with the strong shoulder others have identified. You are definitely not a pear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337410 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 19:34:09 +0000 Anonymous 337410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with qfbrenda that you are an hourglass with a strong shoulder line and could follow the guidelines for hourglass and inverted rectangle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337372 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 18:59:07 +0000 alex 337372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I think my shoulders are kind of wider than my hips. I think the picture may be a little distorted, since it's on a webcam, because in real life I look a little shorter (more squat) than what appears in the picture. I guess I tend to overestimate the size of my lower half because my legs are pretty "muscular", that is, fuller than my hips. I think. Oh i'm so confused. Thanks for all the comments though, it helps to have objective opinions </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337367 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 18:50:10 +0000 qfbrenda 337367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your shoulders look wider than your hips, but you have a nice waist, so I vote for "inverted triangle with a defined waist". And I can't see any lbs that need losing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337366 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 18:46:55 +0000 Mo 337366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no clue but wanted to say you look very proportioned and definitely slim and fit! I know weight is a personal thing but from where I sit, you look like you're at a great weight </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337363 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 18:41:58 +0000 CocoLion 337363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yours is a tough one! I see either rectangle or Inverted Triangle. Or slim hourglass. I don't see pear.</p> <p>I don't see you being short-waisted, your torso looks nice and long to me. Maybe you are high-waisted though.</p> <p>I don't think you need to lose any weight, you look very slim and fit to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337311 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 18:03:55 +0000 Inge 337311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Alex, welcome to the forum. In the pictures it looks as if your shoulders are quite a bit wider than your hips, is that right? In that case I think you might be an inverted triangle with a very lovely defined waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337297 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 17:47:13 +0000 lyn* 337297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Primary Hourglass ... secondarily pear; if you gain on your lower half, I guess.</p> <p>I don't think you're a rectangle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-determine-my-body-type#post-337292 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 17:34:22 +0000 alex 337292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, so posting my picture is kind of embarrassing for me, but I need help determining my body type. This has always troubled me. Pear? Rectangle? I have no idea. I usually gain weight fairly evenly, with maybe a bit more going to my butt and thighs. I am trying to lose a few pounds, but overall I think my shape will stay pretty much the same. Two things that are certain, I have a short waist and short legs. Any input is appreciated, and excuse the messy apartment! </p>
