WHAT IS YOUR TYPE??

**hellagood** · January 26th, 2004, 05:28 PM

Ok, so what is your body type..you know, based off of the fruits...are you an apple? a pear? I am definitely an apple...small legs and thighs and butt, with a big tummy and shoulders...god, I love apples but I don't want to be one!!!

And also, I've heard that different body types lose weight in different places? Does anyone know anymore about that??

I'm an upside-down triangle. I have smaller hips but bigger upper body. Thus I wear a size 9/10 pants but a 12/13 top/dress. Buying a suit, bathing suit...even dresses...is a pain. Thankfully they have separates out there!

I am a pear. I have seen lots of articles but the only one I remember is my body type. Sorry girls.. I dont think about types that I dont have. Anyways for the pear, it is hard to lose weight in the hips, butt and thighs along with the stomach. They say that the pear shape is the hardest and that to target these areas you must do cardio twice a day once a week atleast to see results in specific areas. I will ask my trainer today what she thinks and let you know. I meet with her at 10 am.

I dont really fit in the apple or pear category.

I'm big on top, smaller in the middle, and then curvy on the bottom. Always been told I was an hourglass girl... all the right curves in all the right places.

Thanks Dana!!!! And Y-I totally understand about the upside down triangle thing...I have a big stomach and shoulders and no hips or *** , and small legs....it can be hard sometimes to find separates, but I'm thankful for them too!!

I've never seen a fruit that looked like me.

Measurements are:
44
35
44

almost a perfect hourglass. I think there's supposed to be a 10 inch difference. I have a 9 ince diff... but I'm getting there.

**GINNY** · January 27th, 2004, 10:33 AM

If you are a honeydew melon Roxanne, I am a watermelon!!!! I am thick top to bottom.

**Eva got-a-big-ole-butt** · January 27th, 2004, 12:01 PM

If there were a fruit with BIG A&& THIGHS that would be me! tee-hee.

I do know what you mean by certain body types loosing weight harder/easier than others. Michael Thurmond goes over that in his 6 week body makeover program. I think a lot of it has to do with natural body strengths & weaknesses, compensation factors etc... I have knock knees so my inner thigh muscles are weak - therefore "thunder thighs" but my but is very round & muscular (hence, my little brother's nickname for me G.B. - Ghetto Booty)

Umm that must be California corn, because we have a lot of corn fields out here and they dont turn out anything like you.

Well, when I was a little thinner I was definitely an hourglass. But, now that I've gained weight (all around the middle mind you)...my hourglass has turned into a big fat tomato!

I don't know what I am. I don't think I resemble any fruit, but possibly a pregnant string bean. My measurements are 41-37-44. I have a goofy body. I'm 5'10, but I have a 34" inseam which makes buying pants a REAL pleasure.
