I have danced for a very long time, i am also a very active person and used to run alote. Since i was little my calves have been all muscle. But they are so big and i hate it. Also my thighs have muscle too but there is also a bit of fat near my hip. I know its muscle and its a good thing but i hate it so much i mean id rather have muscle than a bunch of fat but i really wish my legs could be skinnier. If i ran more often would my legs just get bigger or would they get skinnier? what can i do about this?

Well I'm thinking that if you ran more your legs would get "more defined" as far as "bigger" goes it's hard to say as I don't know how much fat you actually have on your legs and how big they are to begin with. Muscle burns fat so I say run more, it certainly can't hurt ;)

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.

Your legs sound like they may just be your hottest feature and they are the one you like the least. Oh well - recommend kylie2188 answer as maybe the best bet. Marathon bicyclists are just too skinny. Pencil legs. They always look like they have cancer or AIDS because they are so thin in the arms and legs.

Muscle proportions are pretty much genetic.
Keep active and don't be so hung up. You probably look great to a lot of people you know.
