Particularly with apple shapes, but I found it a bit too, you tend to develop that parcel rack on your lower back when you gain. The lower back can carry a lot of weight, without it being in rolls like your stomach and it disguises any shape your butt might have. I found as I lost, that fat went and these two dimples that I never thought I'd have appeared at the bottom of my back and my butt gradually took on a bit of shape, side to side, I have a nice hourglass shape now. But looking from the side, its still a bit flat becuase its dropped, lol. That's where my sag is, I've got a flat tummy but a droopy butt. I've done literally THOUSANDS of weighted squats, lunges, I run and run and run, and I have built up a bit of muscle under there to give it a bit more shape. But will you develop a beautiful, tight, peach like derriere from under a flat droopy one?. Probably not. But it WILL improve markedly and have a much more pleasing shape when the back and love handle fat is gone.

awww thank you jacqui!! i really appreciate that!! i hope i can get something back there....cuz my girls call me pancake and its getting old! lol

I was really surprised that I actually had some butt after weight loss. When I was thin years ago I had somewhat of a flat butt and, as Jackie stated, that rack that women get as they gain weight makes the butt look flatter. I now have a rounded rear...think a lot of the shape comes from working out and staying active. The thing I think helped the most to shape my butt is walking 5 miles a day on a pretty good incline on my treadmill.

At my lowest adult weight I did have a cute round butt, but the more weight I gained, the wider and flater mine got. So, since losing 112 lbs my round booty has reimmerged! I actually think its ever rounder than it used to be and as I lose I have found that my body has changed shape alot too since I was 16. Well, either that or clothing sizes got a little bigger. At 213lbs I can wear a 14, when before a size 14 meant I weighed 190lbs. Hmmm...

Anyways, I keep getting caught by DH looking at my booty in the mirrors at home becuase it just amazes me! LMAO!

good job michelle on ur weight loss....ur an inspiration

I'm with you, I'm aspiring to be cured of my "NoAssAtAll" syndrome and get rid of this bootydoo thing I got going on. Hoping with the combo of losing weight and doing lots of squats/lunges, I can get some lovely lady lumps back there!

I always had a butt at least a little one as i started gaining weight i thought i was losing it but my jeans would still fit. Once i got my surgery and started loosing weight that is one of the first places i noticed i was loosing the weight from. I hope once i get to my goal weight my body will be proportioned and evened out, if not ill get that fixed! LOL I guess every body is different but good luck.!!

I am African so i got a round too big butt but i still got a gut and hips! but i tone my glut by doing 30mins on the elipital at the glut level and very high intensity like between 6-9 intensity. Do this for a week and it will tone your butt forget the lunges the sliding elipitcal gives my but even more definition.

hi

actually i've lost my bootie since losing weight. so when i have plastic surgery i am going to have some of it augmented. not major...just having fat injected there.....

wish i did get a rounder one....but it didnt happen

thank you soo much..yea my best friend is african..and she has a round big plump booty and a small waist....im soo jealous of her!!! but she hates her butt!! but i will definitely take ur advice on that eliptical... im not expecting god to give me a donky donk...just give me some "umph" back there....but as a previous poster said before, once i get rid of that rack of lower back fat and love handles, the body will form in a different way...
