Speaking of Body Type...Test - Page 3

I was Gynaeoid 65%, Thyroid 30%. I feel like the Gynaeoid part corresponds to my lower body and the thyroid part goes with my upper body.

100% Thyroid.
It's pretty accurate:
"If weight gain occurs, fat is first deposited around the abdomen and upper thighs with the upper part of the body remaining slim."

100% Thyroid

Mine:

Gynaeoid: 71%
Lymphatic: 29%

So, basically all of those questions to tell me I'm pear-shaped; tell me something I didn't know!

Mine:

Android 72%
Lymphatic..28%

The drawing was spot on.

Mine said 100% Android which I believe is pretty correct. But that overweight picture is where I've been before and try to stay ahead of now...the thought that my stomach can look as big as my behind (if not larger), scares me into action.

I even developed the facial hair in my early 30's which my doctor says is tied to my higher than normal testosterone. The good thing though is that I can lose weight without needing to starve myself if I stay consistent with my exercise.

Android: 77%

I pretty much look like the slimmer version but with a flat behind. *shakes fist at Asian genetics*
I don't have excess hair or acne issues though.

Even though it didn't say, I think the rest of me is Gynaeoid due to fuller breasts and thinner forearms and shins. My hips aren't as narrow as Android. My mom did have 10 kids after all!

You're body type is:
Gynaeoid: 66%
Lymphatic: 34%

Silly, isn't it? But I can't help it...

Yep, had the same thought when I saw that.

Gynaeoid 57%
Lymphatic 37%

It's funny because I think I used to resemble the gynaeoid drawings but since going through menopause I look more like the lymphatic.

There was no thyroid in my results yet I have thyroid problems.
