I think it's called crunches. But i do understand ^_^

Thanks for the tip Silver!

I don't look bad fat... I just look curvy.....really curvy. @.@ I have a wide pelvis and a narrow upper body... My hips = my shoulders. But my boobs balance everything out so I have shape...just a larger shape *nods*

*noms my thighs* Hourglass shapes are rare indeed. I can never have one because my bones don't allow it? xDDD I guess my pelvis is just good for baring sons

[Silverbleed]

Oh yes, crunches! Thanks.
Lucky you, you've at least got boobs for balance hahah xD Gladly I seem to do a good job tho, many people think I'm a cup 'larger' than I actually am. Hurray. It's probably my skinnyness so it doesn't look that small.
I also got a narrow upper body. I'm damn proud of my bone structure, I love how my bones stick out a little there, and not too much.

What shape are you? From what you're telling I could say a banana, I don't think you're a pear or apple.
I don't know where I got my shape from. My sister never had it, she was a pear ever since she was born. My mom was a banana, she had no shape, not butt, nothing xD Maybe from my fathers side? I have no idea. But I like it.

[Duchess]

I'm definitely pear shaped *nods* narrow rib-cage...and wide pelvis.

As per lady on the right. See how she shoulder width = hip width. Mines is like that... AAANNDDD... my upper body is narrow and parallel?? just like too *nods*

[Silverbleed]

Ahh I see. Well, we've both got one of the most 'popular' shapes under boys XD With a butt you can score! 8D Not an apple belly D:

My hips are smaller, and where the middle line is, I'm smaller than the part under my breasts, which means I'm a hour glass.

[Duchess]

Yes you are! Hourglass are good for pinups. *3*

I'm glad I'm not a big round blob of fat.. I'd probably cry ;~; Shape is gooooddddd~

I'm not really into banana tho .x. They just look so....plain?? ^^;;;

[Lancelot]

And I'm trying to gain weight! I tell ya, I was always skinny but now it's a bit much since the surgery, so I understand how you feel from the other side. Too skinny, too much weight, what a crazy world.

[Devri]

...What is this? D| *has never heard of body shapes being compared to fruits before* What other kinds of fruit-shapes are there? @ n @; /wonders what type I am o wo

[Duchess]

Banana, pear, apple..... and hourglass OwO

banana is the same width throughout... pear is bigger hips than torso...apple is bigger torso than hip OwO

hourglass.....should be obvious xDDD

[Devri]

Huh, that's interesting. 9 v9 I think I'm a banana though. OTL I'm like a stick, according to everyone I know. xD;;;

• • • well i'm 6'0 and about 190lbs
      
      you don't have to stop eating you just have to eat less
      and more often
      i wasn't even trying to lose weight and it just happened
      i have no muscle definition but it's really not that hard.
      you just don't have to worry about it
      
      and drink plenty of water
      because most of the time you think your hungry
      it's just thirst

[Silverbleed]

And not just that, barely anyone drinks enough water every day. Even I thought I was drinking enough but I also never make it to the 'minimum of 2 liter a day' your body needs. Going to the bathroom makes you loose like half of it, so actually you have to drink about 3-4 liter to get the minimum, not 2 liter.

[Coda]

Actually, two liters is sufficient; you're SUPPOSED to pee it out. If you're RETAINING that much fluid, something's wrong with your body. Your body will absorb what it needs and use the rest to flush out metabolic waste products like excess salts and excess water-soluble vitamins.

Edit: That is, 2 to 2.2 liters is sufficient for the average woman; some research indicates that men need as much as 3 liters. But as long as your urine is mostly clear (slightly colored is OK) you're probably hydrated enough.

[Silverbleed]

True. Tho there's this machine I could stand on at the gym, and it showed I needed to drink 20% more. It's amazing how much you have to drink xD And yeah water of course. Coffee is a curse, it does the opposite D<

[Coda]

It doesn't so much have to be water; any fluid that isn't also a diuretic counts.

If you pinch the skin on the back of your hand and it snaps back down as soon as you let go of it, that's a good sign you're probably sufficiently hydrated. If it doesn't bounce back right away (for instance if it takes a little bit to smooth back out) you're dehydrated.

(Edit: For people who don't know the term, "diuretic" means it makes you pee more than normal. Caffeine is one, although the concentrations in most teas and sodas isn't enough to cause a problem. Coffee's strong enough.)

Just don't drink ALL of your calories because they add up fast

[Silverbleed]

I try to avoid soda, there's too much sugar in it.
