    I'm going to be really honest and I hope I don't sound rude. If your calves were smaller you would look ridiculous! Your legs are perfect! You don't want little toothpick legs.

    Let me just start by saying, I use to weight around 170 if not 180 pounds when I was 21 years old. It's been a slow journey, but this year I was really determined to not quit and it's got me to 134 pounds. I haven't lost much weight these past 3 months and been trying wanting so badly for my legs to slim down.. but I'm finally trying to embrace them and be proud of how far I've came. I have lost maybe a pound in the last 3 months and my measurements have not changed too much at all, but I've noticed I'm stronger and I look better.... Thanks to strength training! It's still a bit scary to wear this out in public, still a bit insecure with my legs, but I wore it and I made it through the day just fine! :)

    it's funny that you want your legs slimmer -- where you have them now is what i wish mine were like. my thighs look so wide from the front. >:/ what exercises do you do?

    If I had your legs, I would be showing them off all the time! Lol. On a serious note, though, I think you look simply fantastic! Good job!

    Girl, I would LOVE to have your legs!!! My thighs have always been bulky and somewhat flabby, except when i was a little girl! Let those legs loose and show 'em off! Really pretty!! :) Congrats, too, on how far you have come! You have worked hard and totally earned it! I also want to say that I absolutely LOVE your white shirt in your before pic! So stylish! :P

    You are stunning!!! Way to go, you should be extremely proud!

    I get it about the legs thing (although frankly, you're crazy :noway: ) - they say even supermodels have things they're self-conscious about...

    Thank you everyone! Wearing any shoe with a heel emphasizes the legs and I've got muscles on my thighs as well that doesn't show here.... I guess that's what made it different and the reason it was a bit scary, because I don't wear heels that often, and when I did in the past, it was always only with jeans.

    What did I do? Well my mother says I got these legs because I jumped on the trampoline non-stop as a young child. I loved the trampoline! :) Now, I just do incline once in a while on the treadmill. I gave up squats and lunges, not wanting my legs to bulk up, but this month, I let fear go and started to incorporate them again into my strength training with weight.

    Thanks everyone again, y'all re too kind. :)

    Your legs look great. Take it from a person who used to have the same issue. I played softball for 17 years and did countless squats among other things. No amount of running or any other exercise can make my legs smaller so I finally decided to embrace them. Plus I guess it's better to have muscular legs...and my husband loves them :) You look great :)
