    I'm 5ft 6, 170lbs and my calves are 12.5 inches...but I love them because they are the most defined part of my body (at the moment)

    You have reason to be proud. Nice.

    Mine are 16".

    I've heard that lack of sleep affects cortisol and sugar levels along with other hormones and if your sleep is bad it can make you store more fat in your calves.

    My calves are huge, 18.25" of mostly muscle. Would like to see if anyone else can compare. Lol. My boyfriends thigh is the same size ad my calf

    Im not trying to offend but you have more fat on your calves then you realize; for comparison, Arnold Schwarzenegger 's calves were 20" when he was competing and his body fat was somewhere between 4 - 10%.

    Mine were about 17 inch (211lbs, 5'6.5"), but then I started Couch 2 5k and now they are 17.75" Sigh. I would like to buy boots at some point calves, could you please shrink?

    My thighs are 27 or 28 I think.

    Feelin' downright dinky: 16" calves on a 5'5" 138 lb frame... glad to know that after years of hating my big calves (not all muscle), they aren't so big after all -- but buying boots is still not easy.

    Yep, boots that go up to the knee and beyond are the major problemo...for me too.
