Best Exercises for Thighs?
Hello! I am looking to tone up my thighs. I am in a new musical and will have a short skirt for one of my costumes, and while I know you can't really spot reduce, I am looking for some exercises I can do daily/every other day to tone them up a little so they at least look better than they do now. :) They aren't bad, but…

Just Need a Reminder and Motivation Boost
I have always been able to start a workout program and drop 8-10lbs the first month, then steadily about 1lb a week until I get bored with it or get to a weight I am ok with.
