As you can see from the picture below, I carry most of my weight on the lower half of my body. I would love to have a more toned butt, slimmer thighs and a flatter abdomen. Does anybody know of a workout that will do this without shrinking my upper body too much? Feel free to add me as a friend, any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you! X

Have you heard of Kayla Itsines BBG? I'm pretty sure if you google the first PDF you can find it for free. It's comprises of 3 workouts a week targeting either abs, legs or all over. Each week the intensity builds. I did the first 9 weeks a couple of years ago but it is tough but it definitely shrunk me down and tightened certain areas.1

Unfortunately no. If you want to shed excess weight/fat, you can't control where you lose it from. Based on your post, I'm assuming you lose from your lower half last, which is not at all uncommon.
Workouts have very little to do with what you're talking about.
Lose some weight/fat to thin out your lower half, or get on a good lifting program to build your upper half.2 -
There is no way to spot reduce your lower half. I have/have had the same body type as you. Genetics, baby. My sister and I gain first in our hips. To reduce the size of my hips I had to drop weight, which meant losing some chest. You can't decide where to lose weight.1
