LEGS before & after... looking for inspiration!

Hey everyone!

I have pretty muscular legs (about 17" calves), and I'm also overweight (5'2" and 192 pounds) and trying to change that! I have a really hard time finding boots that fit these calves, and I'm wondering if that will ever change, even if I do slim down to my goal weight!

Does anyone have before and after pics of their legs? Ha ha, funny thing to request, I know, but I'm really just curious!

Thanks everyone! This is such a great community... :)

    i'm 54, 5'2" and 220. I can't find boots either - well, I do have 2 pair, but I call them my "fat calf" boots. anyway, I lost a good bit several years back doing lots of walking. my husband says he can tell it in my legs before he can see it in my body. I was walking 3 miles every day and felt really great. I didn't do a lot of extra with my legs, but they seemed to slim up on their own. i'm hoping that will be the case this time as well. good luck!

    Hey, not sure what type of boots you are looking for, but if they are western, I would suggest Ariat boots. They are scalloped at the top and are lower cut in the front- perfect for muscular or well-rounded calves.
