When I did my measurements for mfp my thighs measure19 1/4 at largest part. I've always thought they were small, just curious what other tall girls thighs measured

    that is pretty small... my measurement is usually about 24" (and that's after losing about an inch. :) But i've always considered mine to be pretty big (muscular, but also a bit jiggly).

    I'm 4'11 and have 19 inch thighs--they aren't MASSIVE even for me do for someone tall that would be rather small.

    I'm about 5'7" (I'll find out for sure today at my *new* doctor - me and my old doctor disagreed on my height)

    My right thigh is 23.5" and my left is 24.125"
    I have big thighs from years of soccer and tennis so there's muscle in there but still too jiggly lol

    That's the part of my body that I want bigger, I started getting more into strengh training a couple of weeks ago and hopefully
    that will help.

    Jillian Michaels Killer Buns & Thighs.

    I swear mine grew during tennis season with all the lunges, sumo squats, etc that coach made us do. I don't mind my big thighs but I want them to be big due to muscle not fat haha

    I think 24" would look good on me. Perfect size

    Your thighs are 3" bigger than my biceps to put it in perspective.

    Since about 12 years old, I've had large thighs. When I was little, I had "chicken legs" as my grandfather used to say.

    Currently at the largest area they are 25" and I'm 5'6". I'd like to see them go down, but I'd rather have some muscle meat on my thighs. I mean, my legs are strong... Last time I did the leg press I did 350lbs. I just want the jiggle to go away. :)

    Edit: I'm 5'6", not 5'7"... I saw the number 7 somewhere and typed that instead. :embarassed:

    I'm 5'9" and mine are 24.5 inches. While I'm sure I'll lose some size in my thighs, I don't perceive them to be particularly fatty.

    i am 5'8" and i just measured at 18" (largest point). i'm hoping to trim 3-4" off.

    I'm 5'9" mine are 16.5 (at 6" above the top of the kneecap), and 19.75 (at 12" above the kneecap). I always try to measure the exact same point because sometimes the location of "fattest" shifts around, and I'm a little crazy about precision.

    With only one post I'm guessing this is a troll.
    This is the size of my thighs and I'm 5'4" and I definitely have no interest in losing 3-4" inches off of them! If this post is for real, I don't know....
