I have been going to the gym 5 days a week for several months now. I go on the arc for 40 min. then rotate every other day 30 mins " hills " on the treadmill or 30 min express ( circuit training ). I have lost 40 lbs. Now the problem I have developed large calf muscles !!! Will my legs get thinner eventually ? Or am I stuck with big legs because of the muscle ?:grumble:

    They may reduce slowly over time, they have grown in order to compensate for moving your previously larger weight around.

    Doing treadmill work on an incline will actually be stimulating the calves somewhat, so you might want to avoid that.
