    Height: 5 feet, 1.5 inches
    Weight: 100 pounds
    Calves: 12.5 inches
    Thighs: 20 inches

    I'm a pear. My torso is so long and slim that my short legs look like godzilla. On top, I am skin and bones but look down and whoa! I don't even have substantial weight on my chest and behind. All thighs! :laugh:

    My main goal is to slim and tone my thighs down but no spot reduction, so I'm hoping that because there's less to burn on my upper body, my thigh and calf fat will be the ones to go. I HOPE! :drinker:

    Tips, anyone?

    Where does everyone measure? I see that some websites say measure at top right under butt. Others like bodybuilding forum say midway between knee and bottom of butt. That makes a huge difference in my case!

    So I'm 5'8.5", 147lbs with 35-26-34, BF is about 19% (within 1-3%) acording to an online army body fat calculator. Thigh is 23" at widest and calf is 13" at widest. Good or bad? I personally think my legs are too thick, but I am my worst critic...

    "Arms extended should measure from tip of middle finger to tip of middle finger just 5 feet 5 inches (the height). The length of her hand should be a tenth of that, her foot a seventh, the diameter of her chest a fifth."

    5'5" is 65 inches. 1/5 of that is 13, lol!

    I'm nearly in the same boat as well!

    Height: 5 ft 2
    Weight: 102 lbs.
    BMI: 18.7
    Body Fat: different calculators have ranged from about 14% to 22%
    Waist: 25
    Hips: 30
    Calf: about 15
    Thighs: 20

    I think most of my fat goes to my thighs! Even though I supposedly have PCOS (unsure of diagnosis, but that's another story), I think I have less fat on my abdominal area than I do my thighs. Also, I'm thinking after doing Insanity, those millions of squats added muscle with little fat reduction. As much as I dislike cardio like running, I might really have to pick it up to lose the weight.

    Any tips for lean thighs MUCH appreciated!
