    I'm 5'2 115. Just did my measurements this am and while I'm tiny, I have muscular legs and they're 19". Everyone's different and there is no real measurement of what's tiny. To each their own I guess. Your picture? Not even real to me and not healthy at all. Please don't aim for that.

    It's not healthy to strive to be extreme, either skinny or fat... We can all agree there. But it's possible to advise someone not to strive for 12" thighs without saying "eww chicken legs". Crappy insults like that are not necessary or helpful. They only make you look like an insecure fool.

    I hate my thighs. I think they are HUUGE (btw: NOT me in my picture :p)
    They are 19-20 inches, and I'd like to know what's considered "small" / "thin"...
    And please don't answer 10 inches.... that's not realistic for me :/

    So, how small is small thighs? :)

    Kinda rude to anyone who has that size thighs or larger. At 4'11 mine are "huge" too I guess.

    According to my last measurements, mine are 18.5-19 (different on each thigh). They're still ginormous for me though, since I'm only 4'11". I guess it really depends on height and body shape and such. I think thigh gaps are lovely, but I doubt I could ever get one with my body shape :(

    Yours are smaller than mine and I highly doubt they're ginormous--fat? Maybe if you don't lift weights but huge...not hardly.

    Not being rude to anyone. I think it's too big - MY opinion. Just like everyone else on this thread has their opinion about my profile picture... ;)

    5'0'' over here and happy with my 20" thighs. And I can run like a BEAST! :)

    BAM! WE ARE THE SAME (points to tacky colored Speedo)

    I don't have a problem with my short 20" thighs either. They have carried me a lot of miles.

    Amen shorties :)

    I'm really curious. If that's not you in your picture, then why do you have there there? Is that what you are striving for?

    I find the picture motivating, I've always wanted smaller thighs.

    Hers look to be maybe 15 inches.....not sure how motivating or realistic that is, but that's just me.

    It really depends on your proportions and how much muscle and definition your thighs have. On some people 23 looks too big, and on others it looks perfect and for someone else it looks small.

    Work on increasing your definition/lowering body fat percentage, and they'll look great.

    omg I love your figure! You look amazing! Do you mind me asking how many inches your waist (at the narrowest) is? I would love to be so trim as you, and we are the same height. :)

    my mid thigh/ maybe slightly above :huh: ( i thought it was biggest part ? )

    is 22 inches .. maybe my niece was right ( she said my legs are nice/ not flabby)

    my stomach is a whole nother issue :laugh:

    I have been measuring at the mid forever. The other day I measured around the very top and it was 2 inches bigger. I was kinda depressed about that number. So now I will measure both.

    Those thighs look strong, sister. Much better motivation than a pic of someone dying of starvation. :drinker:

    I have been hard on myself about my thighs. I don't mind them staying the same size, or even getting bigger, so long as they are muscular :) Its hard for me to build muscle in the inner thigh/back area, but I'm working at it.

    I like the idea of using photos to visually remind you of what you are striving for, much like a vision board. Focus on what you wish to experience is my motto!

    I don't know darlin, because I've certainly never had them. :-( I'm 5'8, a size 4-6 and my thighs are a little over 20"...it's the genetic disaster that is my leg-acy.
