At What Age Did You Start...

At what age did you start looking in the mirror and noticing your GRANDMOTHER'S body type staring back at you?

Or, how old were you when you started examining your bottom in the mirror, and, instead of worrying that it looked "Too Fat" worried that it was shrinking (while the rest of you was not)?

Just curious - I'm 39 and looked in the mirror this morning and worried that my bottom was looking too small.

What can I do next?

I'm 29. I haven't run into that...yet. I was passed all the recessive genes in my family, thank goodness.

Ask me in ten years. Better yet, don't...I probably won't want to answer!!!

I noticed after giving birth nearly 2 years ago, I got my moms' hips. Now, almost 2 years later, I see I have gotten the area on my chest where boobies USED to live....so sad :o( I hada pretty decent rack at one point and like my mom and sister they are down to the nothings. I went from baked potatoes to tator tots. Oh well.

I'm 29 and I noticed after having a baby my bum is disappearing! It's all flat now, it used to be much more "bubbly".... yet my midsection doesn't shrink into nothing, why is that?? ;-)

LOL!
No yet, but I have the feeling that sooner or later we all end up with either a shrink one or a big one.

Not my grandmother's body, but her arms and hands. I am 70. Arms are getting better working out, but hands are still old. Just happened around 70. I am so active that everything else is good

My mother was VERY sick a couple of years ago and came and stayed at my house. She had an "incident" in the bathroom and got into the shower. I went in the bathroom to clean up while she was in she shower. Lets just say...eww...anyhoo....She needed help getting out of the shower and I just about fell over. We have the SAME body. Mine is a bit bigger right now, but the same boobs, same belly, same butt. It was CRAZY!

All of the women on my mom's side of the family have been cursed with her grandmother's body type (think stovepipe). Oh the joy!

Now, if I ever had a shrinking butt, I would be ecstatic!
