What type of exercise good for thighs & butt

Do the following:

(1) Set a reasonable calorie goal that targets no more than about a pound a week of weight loss. Be consistent and stick with it. This works but it takes time and no you won't see a reduction in your scale weight every day. It will take weeks to see the trend line because water weight fluctuations will have the scale move up and down. Be patient.

(2) Look at a variety of strength training programs and find one you like. Weight lifting is an excellent way to build the body you are looking for, but you can also do this with body weight training. I would suggest looking at Starting Strength, Stronglifts, and Strong Curves to start.

(3) Make sure you are getting about 0.8 grams of protein per pound of body weight and about 0.35 grams of fat per pound of body weight. Fill the remaining calories with carbs or more fat and/or protein. Just don't go too low on carbs as they are your body's primary energy source.

(4) Focus your diet on lean meats, fish, vegetables, legumes, dairy, eggs, fruits, and nuts. This will make it easier to hit your calorie and macronutrient goals while also getting enough micronutrients. Potatos, rice, bread, and other high calorie carbs will not cause a problem if they fit into your calorie and macro goals but they are generally not as satiating per calorie as the foods in the first sentence.
