When I first came here I thought I was a pear, then some weird hybrid of a pear, rectangle, and hourglass. Now I know I'm an hourglass but I still cheat and dress like a rectangle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-8014 Wed, 21 May 2008 17:35:12 +0000 blbarnett1234 8014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you very much Angie and Maya.<br /> Your input was very helpful, b/c I actually thought I was an inverted triangle (or rectangle or hour glass)...okay I was just confused! Thanks again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-8005 Wed, 21 May 2008 17:22:06 +0000 Angie 8005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Tell me about it San). </p> <p>Maya is spot on. That's why you keep on receiving compliments when you wear a dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7994 Wed, 21 May 2008 16:45:43 +0000 Maya 7994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your waist comes in a lot, which I envy, and your hips are quite curvy, so you can't be an inverted triangle. I agree with hourglass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7990 Wed, 21 May 2008 16:37:01 +0000 blbarnett1234 7990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Angie and san for your input.<br /> Do my shoulders being wider than my hips mean "inverted triangle"? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7985 Wed, 21 May 2008 16:20:19 +0000 Anonymous 7985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're lucky you have great abs. Looks like you've been working out. The picture of you at the beach made me so home sick for the beach. I live near Seattle now and spring is dragging along slowly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7981 Wed, 21 May 2008 16:01:22 +0000 Angie 7981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look hourglass -y to me. Not quite straight enough to be a rectangle. What do you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7967 Wed, 21 May 2008 15:01:35 +0000 blbarnett1234 7967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, I went to photobucket and finally have pictures.

I'm 54, 5'2", 140 lbs.<br /> My measurements are 37-39-41 Bra size A, shoulder width 16" and my inseam is 27" I carry most of my weight in my belly (definately not my chest!) I have always had trouble because my chest is smaller than my belly...and I have that "muffin top" I have medium length brown hair, which I have colored--it's mostly grey now.<br /> Thanks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7682 Tue, 20 May 2008 02:16:30 +0000 Maya 7682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you post the photos somewhere else?

Hmmm, you could be rectangular. Hard to tell without a photo. I can’t tell from your measurements how straight you are. Use photobucket to help you upload pics onto this site. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7636 Tue, 20 May 2008 01:01:37 +0000 blbarnett1234 7636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same pants and jacket size for suits.</p> <p>Here is a front picture (in a bathing suit):<br /> <a href="http://www.msnusers.com/2tut15mghi78ghm0fjnfqppt07/Documents/Pictures%2FPicture%20162.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.msnusers.com/2tut15.....%20162.jpg</a><br /> Here is a side photo:<br /> <a href="http://www.msnusers.com/2tut15mghi78ghm0fjnfqppt07/Documents/Pictures%2FPicture%20163.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.msnusers.com/2tut15.....%20163.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7635 Tue, 20 May 2008 00:57:26 +0000 Nicole 7635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll be Angie to the punch...</p> <p>Do you wear a different size on top than on the bottom? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7632 Tue, 20 May 2008 00:35:35 +0000 Maya 7632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You sound like an inverted triangle to me. I'll wait for the picture to confirm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7627 Tue, 20 May 2008 00:11:34 +0000 blbarnett1234 7627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your replies.<br /> Yes, I see that I didn't include enough information. The 35-27-38 measurement alone was deceiving, because I'm definitely not a pear.<br /> I'm 5'6'', my bra size is 36C. My shoulders are quite broad-- definitely wider than my hips.<br /> From the front, my waist looks almost the same width as my hips. My lower body weight is mostly in my backside rather than hips.<br /> I'm not sure how to include a photo.<br /> Thank you again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7598 Mon, 19 May 2008 20:31:43 +0000 Maya 7598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This isn't enough information. Your cup size, shoulder width, height, and where you carry your weight will all make a difference. I'm 32-26-36 but I'm not a pear because my weight is mostly in my bum and not my hips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7596 Mon, 19 May 2008 20:25:30 +0000 Nicole 7596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bethany, Can you provide us with a photo? Your measurements could be hourglassy with a pear tendency, but it's hard to say w/out seeing your shoulders to hip ratio. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-body-type-1#post-7591 Mon, 19 May 2008 19:23:35 +0000 blbarnett1234 7591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi,<br /> I'm not sure what my body type is.<br /> My measurements are 35'-27'-38' if I measure around the widest part of my hips/behind.<br /> Thank you for your help,<br /> Bethany </p>
