Am I the only one that has lost weight and still have the thick thighs and big booty? It's kind of annoying. I mean I guess I'm blessed in some ways but just figured it would go away...just a little! I run 3-4 days a week and I do tons of squats and lunges. I tried the BBL but I don't know if it's all in my head or not but it seemed to make my butt bigger...WTH

Advice on how to make my thighs smaller?

    I do not have any specific advice other that you cannot really spot reduce, the more weight you lose the more it will start to come off everywhere.

    I have a very large booty and thighs. They seem to like sticking around. Good thing my husband is an *kitten* man and not a boob man lol

    The only thing I can say that's a positive is that people who carry their weight around their hips rather than their stomach have a lower risk of heart disease and diabetes. There are some interesting articles on it. So remember to think of the positive aspects :)

    Well, it all depends on your body type. Having thick thighs and a big butt is not necessarily a bad thing. Even at 115 lbs, my thighs were always thicker and my butt was thick as well. However, these were nice assets in my opinion, and apparently in a lot of men's opinions as well. As long as you're healthy, it's all good. Just embrace who you are. :-)

    Well, great to know I'm not the only one with this problem. I haven't lost much (yet) but of the weight I've lost, it seems its all in my belly. Clothes fall off my stomach but yet some pants are skin tight on my thighs. Squats, lunges and running haven't helped reduce mine either. What's a girl to do?

    My boobs are totally gone, but the butt and the thighs stuck around. It could be worse, though! Lots of people like some big booties.

    With me, its genetic. My mom had big hips and butt and so did my sister. When I lose weight they DO shrink a bit, but I will never be totally rid of them. And, as was mentioned, I would rather have those than the darn belly fat. I used to have an hour glass figure....I want that back as much as my age and body will allow. :)

    I've been thirty pounds more than my current weight and forty pounds less, but my pants size has never changed. I've been a size 14 since sixth grade. I'm hoping that this time, my body composition has magically changed and that my legs will lose weight a bit faster this time, but eh... I'm fairly certain it's genetic. My mother and grandma have hips and thighs like crazy.

    You're not alone. I fill out my jeans. I have to wear the relaxed fit style pants, because my thighs are so big. I've been called everything from 'thunder thighs' to 'tree trunk trunks'. If you find some way to even it out, be sure to let me know.

    ^ sorry but that's BS. there's no food you can eat that's going to suck away fat from one particular part of your body or any part of your body for that matter..i know plenty of vegetarians with larger thighs and butt, so how come that doesnt work for them?

    anywho, if you're pear shaped then that's you're going to lose fat on your lower body slower than you upper body. just keep doing what you've been doing and the will eventually see some changes in your lower body. are you also keeping track of your measurements?

    Running in school made my thighs bigger, and them and my stomach are the last things I lose. Try jillian michael's killer buns and thighs, I lost 2inches from each thigh from it

    You can't spot reduce. All you can do is keep losing fat and eventually those areas will slim down too.

    Running is great, but some ppl get stick thin from it and other's don't. Mine are big, but all muscle so they don't jiggle but I hate the size anyways
