Stupid thighs!! - Diet & Nutrition Message Board

Ok, here's the thing. My arms are starting to get really toned and my stomach too but my thighs are so uggh. They have some extra fat and I really want to get rid of it! Does anyone know how I can get rid of the fat on my thighs and hips? And my bum. I hate that too cause It hangs and I was a firm bum that lifts up more? Anyone know any exercises and foods to stay away from to get these things fixed? Thank you

When gaining weight liek you shoudl be, the weight will go on in one sort of centralized area first (ie some ppl gain on their tummy, some on their hips, etc)...it will redistribute naturally, and no matter how muchyou excercise NOW it wont go on evenly sort of thing. In addition, everyone needs some fat and from your previous post you are likely lacking some essential fat- I would strongly advise you cut down on exercise..

I agree with gord, running is probably the very best thing for a lower body. I have bulky thighs too and it is incredibly frustrating. I stopped lifting weights a while back too because I wasn't getting leaner legs, just the same bulk but more defined bulk, lol. I just try to do lots and lots of intense cardio but don't do things with a lot of resistance like running uphill or stairsteppers - that tends to build muscle in the legs and bum.
