Another apple here. I went from 350 pounds down to 166, but I'm still thick through the middle. No boobs, no hips, no butt. It's difficult to find jeans that aren't eased through the hip and thigh. I have to find one's that are straight like a boy.

I have no idea.. I always thought I was hourglass shaped heh. I have wide hips but they're in proportion to my upper body... but I do carry extra weight about the tummy (I call it my little pot belly and I think it's CUTE) but it's barely noticable unless i'm naked or in skin tight clothes heh. I'm also really really short.
I'm 5'2" and about 120lb which gives you a rough idea.. i'm slim and curvy yep.. I love my curves. I'm certainly not skinny though, I carry too much extra "padding" all over. I think my height contributes to making me look stockier as well, I certainly can't wear most petite sizes for instance because they're designed for women with no hips it seems.. but I can wear clothes designed for 12-14 yr olds. Wierd huh?

Definantly pear. More issues in the hip/thigh and butt area. I have a small waist but a large chest, which makes buying clothes interesting

I voted thin (I'm still working to lose the baby weight) but I carry extra weight on my hips, thighs, and ass. I don't think people would describe me as pear shaped, though.

I'm in between hour glass and pear. Always had a big butt and hips (it's what got DH's attention ). I guess I'm more of a bottom heavy hour glass. lol.

I cannot describe myself as any specific shape. I have a BIG butt, BIG boobs, a pregnant looking belly, and thighs that defy any definition. I used to think I had an hourglass and hubby says I have a pear shape. But I don't think it quite fits. Someone said snowman shaped and that's kinda me I guess.

I'm definitely a brick. (from the previous Trinny and Suzanna post)
Broad shoulders, no boobs, no waist, no hips, thick legs to match the top half.

I've put myself as an Apple, because I'm thick in the middle, but unfortunately have none of the benefits like slim arms and legs, or nice boobs. I look like a boy.
