How can I lose weight from my thighs?

[MYoungAtHeart]

I like Paxiled reply....It is true, some people just have larger or smaller body parts then what you see in a zine or on a TV show.  I am a female
who went from 250 pounds down to normal for me weight of 140 pounds and have kept it off for more then 10 years.  First I had to get serious and stop stuffing food in my mouth to soothe myself.  Then I had to learn all about exercise and what will possibly work to trim me and what is bunk or junk and how to stay away from stuff that does not work..It is always the most fun finding out about your own body and stretching and training it for top health.

You may or may not be able to do this, but what you can definitely do is tone your thighs so that they are mostly muscle rather than fat.  Some people just have large thighs.  I don't know if you're one of those, but if you look at some incredibly toned professional athletes you won't necessarily see thin people, but you will usually see muscular thighs.  This is an area that is easier than some others to add muscle to.

Start a regular routine of cardiovascular exercise. This, more than any direct muscular training, will burn the calories necessary to lose weight in your lower body. It will increase your metabolism, causing your body to burn calories faster than normal even while at rest. Each week, complete at least three cardiovascular exercise sessions, with each session lasting either 20 to 30 minutes of high-intensity activity or no less than 45 minutes of low-intensity activity. Activities include anything that causes a consistently elevated heart rate, such as aerobics. As your cardiovascular endurance improves, increase the length and frequency of your sessions.
Reduce your calories of your diet. No matter how hard you exercise, you'll never lose weight if you're overeating. Decrease this figure by between 500 and 1,000. This will ensure that you'll lose between 1 and 2 lbs. per week. To reach this figure, eliminate junk foods from your diet. If this does not work,then decrease your portion sizes.
Weight train your lower body at least twice each week. While this won't burn much fat, it will develop your lower body muscles, creating an appearance of increased leanness. At each session, select five exercises from the following list: squat, front squat, hack squat, split leg squat, leg press, lunge, leg extension, leg curl, standing calf raise and seated calf raise. if you need to google each exercise. For each exercise, complete between three and four sets of 12 to 15 repetitions, resting for a maximum of 60 seconds between sets.
Make sure to get the OK from your doctor!
