Let's look at a few things to help lessen the confusion. First, you need to take a good look at yourself in the mirror. This time, instead of looking at the imperfections that may be there, look at your body as a whole. What parts are larger and what parts are smaller? Are your arms and/or legs toned? Is your waist smaller than your hips? These are all important things to acknowledge before trying to identify your body type. Another thing to do is to look at the definitions of each body type. Several of them have similarities. For instance, the Triangle and Oval both have shapely legs. That is a great jumping off point if you are unsure of which type you are. Last thing....no matter what plus size body type you are, OWN it. Not everyone can be a size 00. It's not humanly possible. Walk with your head held high and be confident!!
