Not fat but needs work

Hi all, I am about 135 but I need to get rid of flabby thighs. My spouse always tries to get me to eat junk food. He is my only problem at this point.

    perhaps exercise might help? I would politely tell spouse to "shove it!"

    You can’t spot reduce fat.
    You can add muscle to fill in your body differently.
    Consider adding squats to your workout routine.
    Take care

    I love the saying 'abs are made in the kitchen'. If you are troubled by wobbly thighs, it means you have fat stored there. Doing lunges and squats plus a calorie deficit (the SINGLE most important variable) is the only thing that will chip away at wobbly thighs.

    It took me quite a while to retrain my husband about food. One of the ways he shows his love by feeding me. I wonder why your spouse is feeding you. Is it love? Or is it controlling?
