Ok i watch and love the show like everyone else but i do have one major gripe. There doesn't seem to be any odd shaped women on the programme. Take me for instance. Im a size 12/14, who used to be a size 20 so my belly is extremely wobbly and ugly. To top it off a have 36A breasts so just look totally out of proportion! I'm sure a tummy tuck/boob job is the only way to go. I go to the gym but its still there!! If he gets anyone on the show with an odd shape like that, (aside from me) then i'll really believe he's a genius!

I bet you've got great legs though, or gorgeous arms, maybe dainty feet. Make the most of your good bits, invest in some 'chicken fillets' to give your boobs a lift and get some of the power pants that sort your tummy out. I think most of us think we're an odd shape, I know I do, but I'm learning to ignore the 'bad' bits. I've done a similar thing gone from a size twenty to 12/14, and have stabilised for the last year. The wobbly bits and saggy skin hasn't gone but it doesn't seem quite as bad as it was, so maybe (I'm keeping my fingers crossed) over time, if I can keep the weight off, my skin will shrink enough to fit my bones !!

First of all get fitted properly for a bra, then when you know your size get a good one that enhances your bust: perhaps a plunge bar with lots of padding

Carry on with the gym and make sure you do exercises designed specifically to tone your tummy: might be worth a session with a personal trainer to devise a plan. Invest in some control pants

Do what Julie said and focus on your good bits: I'm sure there's bits of you that you at least don't mind, hopefully even quite like! Focus on them and show them off

Also make sure you pamper yourself: a new haircut at a fancy salon, or a manicure and pedicure can do wonders! Set aside some 'you' time each week: maybe two hours where you can have a long soak in the bath and make yourself even more gorgeous!

You could also try visiting your GP to ask about surgery. It's v unlikely they will do a breast enlargement on the NHS but if your tummy is making you unhappy and they feel surgery is the only way it can be corrected, they may do a tummy tuck, as you have lost a lot of weight. It's worth going to find out and see what they suggest. You'll have to show that the way your tummy is is making you very unhappy, and you'll also need to stress that you've lost a lot of weight, and that exercise isn't helping

The Trinny and Susannah Bum Tum and Thigh Reducer is really good for your situation i put a lady who lost 15 stone in them and what a difference it made to her it just took control of the excess skin and kept everything in place she then looked the size 16 that she was, She went out wearing them !!!. ALso try Panache Atlantis Gel Bra this gives a more natural look and if anyone happened to bump into you it would feel like you not something solid,Tip if your an A cup try a B as the cup is already half filled...hope this is useful

Agree. I think most women are 'odd' shapes and no one can fit into just one description. For example I would say I am (according to Gok's book) a 'slim girl' on top with a 'bootilicious' and 'pear-shaped' lower half. To top it off I have one 'booty' cheek bigger than the other! But I think if you follow some of the rules for each description, treating each part in its own right, then hopefully it will balance out. Magic underwear is the start, believe me!

Just to reinforce a message. I think many of us feel we are an odd shape! As for boobs, I thought I was a 36 A/B before going on to HTLGN. I then found out I was 34D!! Had an amzing impact on how I look!!Made me slightly less disproportionate!
