Turbo Jam! It's a great all over body & cardio workout. You can never specifically target one area of your body to lose fat (no matter what people claim its just not biologically possible) but by doing cardion and strength training you will see differances all over your body. Turbo Jam you can do at home and it comes with a couple different workout CD's. It's around $50 for the whole set. It's well worth it! the music is great - its easy to follow and its tons of fun!

You can tone the muscle in your thighs, but there is no such thing as losing fat in one part of the body. Your body burns fat for energy, and it uses fat all over to do this, not just in one place. So, Whichever exercises burn the most calories will make you thinner, and your thighs will get thinner when your whole body gets thinner. If you are already skinny everwhere except your thighs, you might try to build more muscle mass so you will metabolize more fat. That's what Supermodels do to get that hard body look. Good luck.

Top weight loss tips
Today there is too much information available on losing weight that has become more confusing and sometimes difficult to follow. It’s actually very easy to lose weight if you follow my weight loss tips.
* Be in right frame of mind
Before you can start any diet program you need to be in the right frame of mind. If you do not feel good about yourself you probably will not want to choose healthy foods. You cannot expect the act of going on a diet to make you feel better about yourself. The only way you can choose to eat a healthy diet to lose weight is if you have a positive self-image.
* Eat whole food
Top weight loss tips
Eat whole foods that are as natural as possible. When you eat whole foods that are full of nutrients your body will know how much to eat and how much not to eat. You do not have to count calories because your body is a wonderful machine.
* Eat fresh fruit
Eat at least two servings of fresh fruit every day. Choose whatever type of fruit is in season.
* Drink enough water
Drink the best weight loss supplement known to man, water. Most people do not know the difference from being hungry for food or thirsty for water. A great deal of times people eat when they should drink. Most likely you will not feel as hungry if you are getting enough water. You will be satisfying the thirst, which is confused for hunger. Water also helps you digest food better. Drinking water before you eat will help fill you up.
* Always chew your food
Always chew your food well. Chewing your food well will ensure that you get the most nutrients out of your food. Getting the most nutrients will satisfy your body therefore you will eat less. Another benefit of chewing well is that it helps aid in digestion.
* Take small meals
Eat small, frequent meals in a day. Large meals tax your digestion system, making it work harder. Taking too much time in between meals makes you hungrier for the next meal.
* Include protein at meal
Include good sources of protein at meal, chicken, fish, legumes, peanut, cottage cheese, eggs or yogurt.
* Shut off TV while eating
Shut off the TV whenever you eat – that includes meals and snacks. Studies show that we automatically eat larger portions when we snack in front of the tube, and typically those foods are high in fat and sugar, which means excess calories!
* Increase your physical activity
Increase your physical activity. Most people are over weight because of a lack of physical activity. Start walking more, bicycling, walks your dog for longer periods of time, swim, dance and leave the car at home when you can. It’s important that you choose a physical activity that you enjoy because you’ll stick with it.

you cannot target specific areas for fat loss. You can tone specific areas by exercising those muscle groups which holds the body tighter but as for targeting specific fat loss it is impossible.
