anyone else an apple

do you have to weigh less as an apple compared to a pear because of your waist measurement ?

or can you trick your body into losing belly fat instead of winding up looking even more like a bowling ball then you were pre diet

I was an apple and lost weight all over including my middle but not sure how others manage with that? Went from 42 inch waist to 31.

Maybe when you are at your maintenance weight you will lose a bit more on your waist?

I hope so but I am within a. Kg of where I thought was my maintenance weight but maybe I need to put it down a bit further

I'm an apple too. I hate it! No hips, just a huge middle.

Yeah I hate Being an apple I think that you have to remain a lot lower weight that a pear just to get a healthy waist measurement and then you get stick thin arms and legs

I know. My sister used to take the micky out of my skinny legs. Such a weird shape. I've often thought about waist training with a corset. Can't get the image of everything inside getting squished up out of my head though 🙃
