Erm....healthy toned of either on the small side? Im stuck with curvy. Breeding hipsssssssssss.

currently 35|22-24|34-35 - 125lbs (put on 10 lbs muscle woot!)

Depending on what I wear I can look just thin/avg or curvy if its something fitted. Maybe slim would be good for shopping ease? I don't know. I have fun dressing all types and thats all the ideal body is to me...something healthy that is fun to dress up. LOL

34-35 are breeding hips? I consider that on the small side.

My waist makes them look wide. Small to me is where to go into the 33'' territory. Its CRAZY to me how some models can be so tall and sport a 33'' hipline.

Lulz. It's not a literal banana shape, it just means not a dramatically defined waist. Bananas (or rectangles, if you prefer) still have a waist that's smaller than their hips and bust (usually), but there's less than a 9 inch difference. For example, Annalynne McCord.

You wouldn't be a literal hourglass shape either because you don't have a smooth flat top and bottom and you're only so-so at keeping time.

I would rather be slim than curvy. I think a little muscle definition can be much sexier.

I am curvy and love it. I don't know my measurements by I wear size 36D bra and size 8-10 pants. I would like to lose maybe 10 lbs but other than that, I prefer curvy. I get compliments on my butt all the time.

I'm tall and slim, and I'm okay with that. But I'd love to have a more curvy butt.

I chose "curvy." I used to be curvier in the past but now I'm not, and I think I looked more attractive before. I was never "fat" I just had more of everything. Over the last two or three years I've been slowly losing body fat and weight, but not really trying to do it. I don't like seeing bones where I did not see them before. I think my body and face look more masculine now.

I'm slim, but not skinny like a beanpole. I stay in shape but always make sure to keep some curves. I think it's unnatural for women to not have at least a little bit of curves. I'm overall happy with how I look- a nice balance between the two.
