I have the same goals! Have you considered strength training? I'm currently doing lots of barbell/dumbbell squats, lunges, and the leg press and it seems to be working. There's also an iPhone app called "butt workout" (no, really).

I'm 5'4 started at around 136 (this might be my 4th go-round on MFP), I've been as high as 138. I've lost about 10 pounds in the past couple months and am now 125.
