Any girls with fat thighs have success stories?

start doing squats and lunges - and lots of them.

I used to have a lot of cellulite on my thighs and butt - adding muscle tone will dramatically improve this for you!

Thanks for the tip, i'm fairly small but i have pretty horrible cellulite.

Um, I found a guy who really digs girls with big thighs. Is that a success story?

Same here... 28inch thighs and a huge butt ...i"m always told I have a great body for my height... I don't feel it... I have never worn short shorts..except on my honeymoon as you can see in my profile pic... I was called a soccer mom embarrasing... I'm too young to ever be called that...I just wear bball shorts.. go to my knees or right above... I usually cover my fat thighs with a long fitted shirt... No matter how small I am from my upper body the lower never loses weight.. I want to so badly wear shorts and look good... ANd feel confident... Ladies give me all the suggestions you can....

I've always struggled with my chunky thighs, but the best BIGGEST difference I have ever seen in them was through a combination of swimming and PILATES... Pilates in particular is brilliant as it creates long lean muscle - I tend to bulk up and not see the best results if I just work out at the gym...
It really is a wonderous form of thigh slimming exercise. Do this in combination with cardio for your weight loss and you'll be Happy as Larry!
This is my plan of attack on my wobbly legs at the moment!
Try it!

You know, I have always had a long torso with short legs (for my height) so my thighs have always been thick, and over the past year or two- very dimply.
For the past few weeks, I have used ankle weights, (4lbs) each and done leg lifts. I bought these at Play it Again Sports, so they were cheap (in the box)- adjustable to 10 lbs, and can be used on your wrists too)
You can find various types of leg lifts online, including those for the butt, side, inner thigh and front. While I have not lost any weight, I see a DRAMATIC difference in the shape and cellulite and I am SO happy!
Sadly, I am lazy- so I just keep them near me, and I have managed to easily find time while watching Hulu

Sorry this is so pic heavy but I wanted to give good visual examples. It takes time for the shape of your thighs to change with diet alone. You will get a better shape earlier from working out but since I was unable to do this I figured I would provide a diet only example of what could be done. So it was rather hard to find a picture that showed my thighs from before. I had a bad habit of deleting any shots that had more than waist up but even in this knees up shot I think you can tell I had fairly sizable thighs. I was about 218.



This picture is about 55lbs down and you can see the shape of my thighs hasn't changed much.



Forgive the suggestiveness of this shot but it is a fairly clear look at my thighs after the weight loss without the aid of good jeans. I am about 118 in this shot.



And here is full shot with the aid of good jeans



Just by losing the weight they will drop eventually but it took the majority of my weight being gone before the shape of them began to change.

wow you look great! but i think the shape of your thighs still look the same. you look like a much smaller hourglass/pear shape.

great job on the weight loss !

BUMP

It could be your brain not being caught up to a degree too. I say this because when I look at my legs (thinghs and calves) I feel like they are still stocky... muscular, but stocky. My daughter came home the other evening and I was in my night shirt. I had come out of my room for only a moment and hadn't bothered to toss my night pants on. The next morning she told me I needed to show her what I did to get my legs so small. I responded they aren't and she told me they are sticks, not just twigs but sticks that are perfect in balance to my new body and very defined. I still don't see it. Your brain may still be playing tricks on you.

I CARRY MOST OF MY WEIGHT IN MY BOTTOM AND HIPS AND THIGHS EVEN SO I HAVE A WAIST EVEN WHEN I WAS 120# I STILL HAD SADDLE BAGS IVE LOST 24# SO FAR AND NEED TO WORK THAT AREA MORE IVE JUST STARTED A WALKING PROGRAM. THE ABOVE PICS ARE AWESOME. NICE JOB. THEY GAVE ME INSPIRATION, THANK YOU GG

I've been using the elliptical for a couple months and have noticed slightly more muscular thighs (on the outer part).
Good thread!

She seems to have the right idea...

My success with my thighs is that when I was young and naive, I wanted them to be smaller. Now I realize they make me a good trail runner, sprinter, and power lifter. I've gotten away from wanting to myself weaker and less functional to focusing on making them the best thighs they can be to do awesome work for me. When I see someone with thinner thighs, I often think, "I could front squat her."

I don't know that you'll be pleased with the results of weight training. Since I started lifting heavy, my thighs got bigger. I have not gained any weight and in fact have lost 8% body fat this year but pants that fit me in the spring are now too loose in the waist and too tight in the thighs since I started a heavy program of squats, deads, and lunges. IDC though; they are 25 inches of pure awesome.

This website has helped me with loads of tips and strength training exercises, I don't know if it's all down to the running I have started doing but I've lost 8.5cm off my thighs in the last 3.5 weeks.

I'd have to say that running always helps me dramatically. Unfortunately, I hate to run, but if I need to really tone up my thighs in a hurry....I run. That said, a person can be a bit overweight too and look great when you have that muscle built-up underneath the fat. You may not look "lean", but having that muscle really goes a long way toward creating a nice shape on the body.

Also, typically, the first place you put the fat on, is the last place it comes off. It may do a little bit throughout the entire body, but the bulk of the fat sticks there until your body has gotten rid of it where it wants to. So many times those frustrating areas for women seem to never go away, because it's first on and last off. Meanwhile, your body is shedding fat/water weight but it's STILL in that area that you want it to be GONE from. I know, it bites...but keep on keeping on. You'll get there if you are consistent and incorporate things that your body likes to respond to.
