    Wow what an inspiration, you have obviously worked hard and it shows, you look amazing.

    The difference in your thighs is amazing - any tips as that's one of my stubborn areas?

    Well, from all the research I did and shows I watched, etc I learned that there's not really anything you can do to lose in specific areas (spot reduction) but you can tone and tighten (weight training) the muscles underneath to help reshape. The fat comes off where it wants to come off.

    I'm not striving for perfection (because, really....what IS perfect?) I'm just aiming to be the best me that I can be while still living a comfortable, attainable/maintainable lifestyle. I have saddlebags, flabby inner thighs and thick calves that I wish would go away. I also have a lot of abdominal fat to shed still. So I'm hoping/assuming that as the pounds drop from now on I will notice it come off of those spots moreso than the thinner spots on me (ie. my face, chest, ribcage, etc.).

    If you're close to your goal/ideal/healthy weight and size but the legs are still too "big" then maybe it's not something that can be changed. Some of us are prone to thicker thighs/legs/buttocks because that's just how we're built - I say embrace that deliciousness and work it like Beyonce and J.Lo. :wink:

    I had posted a topic before but can't get in to it to update in that thread. So here's a new post for those that wanted to stay updated with my progress.

    34 years old, 5'-4.5" tall, started at 197 lbs in January 2011 (before pic below is me in August 2009 @ 185 lbs). Currently (April 2012) I am 137 lbs. 15 more lbs to go...maybe more, maybe less...depends how I feel.

    WOW!! Congrats! You look amazing!
