    I weigh 160 and mine are 15". I thought mine were HUGE and even after a 30 lb loss they have stayed the same..this gives me hope that when I weigh 130 they wont look weird.ha

    I'm 145lbs and mine are 15".

    Which makes me happy because I've always thought I had HUGE calves! lol.

    OMG!!! I love you all!!! I have ALWAYS had a thing about my calves. I hate them. I think they are giganormous! I love knee high boots and can never find ones I like what could fit my calves.

    But I found a cure...well something that helped...I weighed about 150lbs and I measured them. They were about 17" each (Im 5'3" btw). I got those Reebok Easy Tone tennis shoes for Xmas. I was wearing them ALL the time, work, play, everywhere. My co-workers mentioned that it had looked like I had lost weight, which I hadnt and they mentioned that it was in my thighs/legs area. I measure them again and I was down to 15.5"!!!!!! I couldnt believe it. Im still working on getting them below 15" but I will do it!

    Now: 5'3" 140lbs 15" calves

    Height: 5'6.5"
    Weight: 129
    Waist: 25.5
    Hips: 36
    Calves: 14.5

    I've always thought my calves were ridiculously huge too! I think it's because I have 9" ankles though, so my legs just look 'larger'. I bet if I had some nice 6-7" ankles they'd look better!

    But thanks for this thread, maybe they're really not that big afterall!

    Height: 5'1"
    Weight: 138.9 lbs
    Calves: 16"

    Calves are my biggest complex even if I wear 9/10 skirts or dresses. I've already had unkind remarks about them when I didn't wear tights, it made me very uncomfortable. I hope so much to lose a little bit of them with my weight loss.

    Jessilea your own account is giving me hope! I've always thought Reebok Easy Tone tennis are just a psychological motivation to move your body but now... Well they are expensive but if it can change something... someone else has already tried those shoes ??

    My calf measurement is 17 inches! They are all muscle though. They've always been like it. I am hoping they will slender down a little though with exercise.

    I have very defined calves...and always have. I'm currently at 163, 5' 2" with 16 1/2" calves but I've had that size even when I was 140. I get compliments on them from body builders....lol.

    My calves are 16/17" each depending on when I measure (I think last time they were 16 and 17), waist is 35, hips 43.

    Weight: 148
    Neck: 13
    Chest: 38
    Bicep: 12
    Waist: 34.25
    Hip: 39
    Thigh:22
    calf: 15.5

    The calfs actually have gotten bigger since I started, so it's a good thing to have muscle in them
