    My measurements 3 weeks ago
    5'11
    185lbs
    Thigh:15"
    Calf:16.3"
    I'm hoping my calfs get to 15.5" by the end of my journey but I like how they look now too.

    This post has made me feel better about my calf size, used to think they were huge but now I am thinking normal :) I still want them smaller, but hey ho, that will come in time ( I hope! )

    I weigh 11 stone 6
    THIGHS: 26 :(
    CALF: 15.

    Okay I never realised my thighs were so huge! =[ well this is the wake up call I needed.

    I have fat thighs too and same measurement as yours. Its so difficult to get rid of fat in the thighs. . :(

    22.5" thigh
    16" calf

    as of 8/28
    I weighed 171.4 that day and I'm 5'8".
    No clue on BF%. I have quite a bit of loose skin on my thighs so I think that's effecting it a bit.

    I had a thigh gap a few months ago and I was starting to really like my thighs, but I started binging and gained a lot. :( Now my thighs are 23" and I can't wait to get id of them.

    Ohai me.

    5'3.5 " 120 lbs

    thigh- 20.5 in
    Calves- 13 in

    I'm in love with angular thighs and they're starting to get that way from my slight bulk I did since back then. Tough cookies for me now though with my current injury but fun to look back!

    5'9"
    135 lbs
    19% BF
    thighs - 21" at thickest part
    calves - 15" (from years and years of ballet dancing!)

    I won't lie. I hate my thighs. But, since I'm close to my goal...... I like them more. I'm tall so they are long legs and they are not skinny, but they are pretty lean and muscular now. Would I like another inch off? Damn straight!! But, I'm wearing size 4 pants and the legs aren't too tight. So for now I'm ok with it.

    GIRL we have almost identical measurements and body fat. I thought I was abnormal...people still call me skinny despite those thighs. i think I'm the only one that has a problem with them.

    Height - 5'6"
    Weight - 145 lbs (down from 165 a few months ago, woop)
    Thighs - 21"
    Calves - 15"

    I used to hate my calves but I quite like them now - would like to lose a bit of fat from them but I know a lot of the size is muscle from dance. I'd like my thighs to slim down a little bit more, but as I only have a few lbs left to lose I'm not sure that's going to happen. I think my legs look OK because they're long (I have a very short body in proportion to my legs!).

    Calves: 15"
    Thighs: 20 1/2"
    Weight: 177 lbs
    Height: 5' 4"

    shop.nordstrom.com/c/womens-boots-calf-size
    That site says 15 1/2" or more is a wide calf boot and 13 3/4" or less is a narrow calf boot so an average calf boot must be between 13" and 15". If your calves are 14 1/2" then they are average already.

    Height: 5'3"/160cm
    Weight: 166.7lbs/75.6kg
    Body Fat: Unknown; I'll ballpark it around the low 30s
    Thighs: 23" at the widest point
    Calves: L: 15" at the widest; R: 15.5" at the widest (I need to work on not favoring one leg)

    Hoping to get down to 21.5"/22" for thighs and 14/14.5" for calves (provided I can get the calves the same size) once I'm at my goal.
    I want to wear normal width boots!

    Happy to have found this post! Always been really self conscious about my chunky legs but it would seem they're much more normal than I realised having read through! :)

    I am not average, I am very overweight. But...

    Height 4'11"
    Weight 177lbs
    Calves 14.5"
    Thighs 25"

    No idea about body fat percentage. 40 something I suppose. I am large framed and do plenty of weightlifting. I'm down from 253.5lbs and never measured those body parts before. My calves aren't as massive as I thought they were.
