You should really love the body you have- things could be much worse. I have a "pear shape" and being 5"5 and around 10 stones, im alright. But i am not into popular fashions because i choose to wear baggy clothes, so my main message to you is cherish your curvacious self always.
i read every woman is either a pear or an apple and it is fixed whree u put on weight. the only way u can change it is surgery. but pears are healthier than apples :wink:
I have a similar problem, with large hips and thighs :'(

I find that A-line skirts are the best for my shape because they widen past my thighs and give the illusion that I'm all straight lines (if you see what I mean)- forget all that tight fitting, thigh clinging denim! Also, low-ish cut trousers/jeans seem to disguise my wide hips.

Pears are fab though, embrace the womanly curves - what's more important is confidence, which is admittedly easier said than done.... and what's even more important is STYLE, which I'm sure you've got heaps off :smile: and, what's most important of all is personality personality personality :smile:

I've read about some women who have that problem dramatically changing their body shape by working out intensively with weights. It did seem to require a lot of effort and dedication over a period of months so I suppose it depends how keen you are to do it. :smile:
