    I love my thighs! Really nothing to be insecure about though-mine aren't particularly large or muscular.

    i agree! some people like myself just can't get those model-skinny legs because i am not built like that. i have a very muscular/athletic build and the majority of my muscles are in my back and legs. the ONLY time i was able to get those model skinny legs was when i has severe post-partum depression and basically didn't eat for 2yrs..i was skin and bones and SO unhealthy that people i knew didn't even recognize me and would walk right by me on the street!

    i LOVE how strong my thighs are. my quads pop out and it may make my legs look "thick" but they are strong and i love them.

    the photo on the left is me in 2009 and weighed 108lbs; i was at the height of my depression. i haven't been 108lbs since i was in grade 9.

    the photo on the right was taken last year october. i had been successfully treated 2yrs prior and got my *kitten* back in gear with regards to fitness and health. that was taken after a 6-7K run.

    PEOPLE: LOVE YOUR BODY!!

    Thank you for creating this post :)!!!!!!! Love love love it . I am a recovering thigh hater , I used to get made fun of but you know what I've realized ? I took tap , hiphop, soccer , basketball, and horse back riding. No wonder my thighs are so powerful! I'm not gonna be a stick with that as a child . I will post a love for my thighs pic a little later today :) I love being able to hold yoga poses and do deadlifts and squats with them :)!

    THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS... I want to lose weight in a lot of places but oddly.. I never have wanted to lose much in my legs as a whole. Something about my legs as a whole says woman to me, not girl. I want strong able legs..Curves!

    I'm tired of reading threads from ladies complaining about their thighs. Stop berating your legs and speaking such nastiness over them. They are *not* disgusting. They are not ugly, hideous, awful, etc just because they don't look like some supermodel's legs. You are a woman....not a 14 year old girl. As your body matures you develop curves in areas like your thighs, booty, hips, and boobs. How come people are okay with developing curves in their boobs but hate on their thighs? Gotta balance it out - and most men loooove a nice womanly figure. Amirite?

    Thighs come in all shapes and sizes. Hello, my name is Jen and I am a recovering thigh-hater. Through the support and love of my MFP crew, I've learned to see my thighs for what they are - strong, shapely, and worthy of admiration! But I didn't get these thighs from sitting on my butt and complaining about them. It took a whole lotta squats, lunges, deadlifts, and jumping to begin transforming them from 26" of sloppy, fatty thighs to 23" of strong, muscular thighs. (I'm not a runner, I hate traditional cardio work...and if you do enough squats in a row - you'll see how much cardio is involved in lifting!)

    I have tried to deem Thursday as "Beautiful Thigh Thursday" on my wall in an effort to get my fellow girly friends on here to love and embrace their thighs. To see that they don't need to be 18" and thin to be hot. The only way you are going to love on your thighs is to start SPEAKING IT OUT instead of putting them down. And do work. Lots of work. They'll reward you, but it won't be overnight so be patient. Encourage your friends with kind words when they have the courage to bare an area of their body that often comes under intense scrutiny.

    Ladies who love their thighs - please share your gams here so we can show everyone that it's not always about having the "perfect legs" - but the confidence you walk out in those legs is way more attractive then body hating. :flowerforyou:

    23" right here baby!

    Dizzle girl I love your thighs! In fact everyone who has posted here is bloody awesome!

    I have very muscly legs, especially my thighs. I'm pretty proud of the amount of muscle I have on them...... if only I didn't have about 4 inch of extra flab on them I would post pics! Am pretty sure I will love them when I get closer to my goal weight (about another 40+ lbs)

    ditto... minus the very muscly part. They're getting there though, deadlifted 110 today so underneath that jiggly stuff, I know there's muscle!

    but if you post yours now, I'll post mine.

    I completely missed this post! Ok I will see what I can do tonight :)

    Need to figure out posting pics on threads but profile pic has thighs in tight red jeans which I would never have thought about wearing before, I am finally growing to love my thighs as I approach my 46th birthday, what a shame we are taught to hate our bodies so that the 'beauty' industry can make billions out of our misery when all you really need is a barbell and plates
