    I have always had what I call thunder thighs... yucko!! I am muscular because I love to play racquetball and hike and bike...and I lose weight but my thighs are big. Hope this time I stick with the healthy eating and the 5:2 plan and lose some thigh circumference. Thanks for the post because I sort of thought I was alone with my thunder thighs.

    My thighs and butt are still big, but I have been weight lifting more, and now they are very tight, and my booty is perky. So I love them now, great strong legs.

    My thighs disgust me so much. They have always been big and I hate it, and they are like disproportional to the rest of me. It's been so hard to get them to shrink down, they've only shrunk an inch after months of dieting and exercising (although I have mostly been yo-yo dieting until recently) The fat on there doesn't want to budge at all. I would like them to shrink down at least 4 more inches. I know you can't spot reduce, but has anyone found anything that has helped your thighs shrink if you naturally have big thighs that don't wanna budge?

    Are you Scandinavian or German descent? Large legs kinda run in the genetics of those descended from these regions .

    I am of German descent. However, my legs could eat the legs of the German foreign exchange students that visited, y'know, if legs had mouths...and...could eat.

    I thought I was the only one with this problem. I was thinking about picking up a spinning class but I heard that the muscle will get bigger in your thighs and make you weigh more which is not what I'm looking for. I run everysingle day if possible and I still see no difference I want them to be a bit more skinny. What should I do?

    Spinning class while on a diet will NOT make your thighs bigger. You just need to be patient. The fat will come off your thighs when it "wants" to. It might be the very last place it comes off. This sucks but you can't change it short of liposuction.
