I've already lost 10 pounds and there's still unwated fat in my thighs, and I really want to get rid of 'em. So if I lose more weight, do you think that I'll lose the fat in my thighs?

LIPO?! O_O no, no, no. not lipo! I had thin/skinny thighs when I was about 8 to 10 or 11 years old, does that mean it's possible to have thin thighs again?

I think it might be helpful if I massage them for you.

Congrats on your weight loss!
The hard fact of the matter is that you simply cannot choose where on your body to lose fat. There are no magic exercises or diets that can make you lose fat in a particular place on your body. Although the diet industry would have you believe that this is possible in order to sell you a product.
Everyone who diets to lose weight will eventually come to a point, usually a few months into it, where their diet no longer works. Whatever it is that you're doing, be it your diet or your cardio or whatever...it won't work forever. What people are usually left with at this point is fat in one spot that just won't go away.
Unfortunately, the only way to get rid of this is to increase your daily caloric deficit. And the best way to do that is to increase your cardio. It's not easy, but losing those last unwanted pounds never is.
What you shouldn't do is eat less. Exercising more is always a better choice than reducing your calories, especially since you've been reducing them anyway.
If you've gotten this far without doing cardio, you're lucky. But you're probably not gonna lose the rest without it.
Good luck!

As you lose weight you will lose some of that unwanted thigh fat but the only way (without surgery) to tone those thighs is exercise. Walking is excellent. Start out with 20 minutes and then gradually build up to a brisk walk for 45. This is not only good for your legs and thighs you are also getting the cardio you need. Here is a site with a few good exercises targeted for thighs.

Maybe, maybe not.
Unfortunately you cannot influence what part of your body you lose fat from. Some people find that no matter how hard they exercise they cannot lose the fat from their thighs. Liposuction is the only answer then if you really cannot live with your thighs. Sorry....

Squats and lunges. However depending on your genetic makeup, you can diet all you want and squat all you want, but different people store fat in different places.
If the fact is your body stores fat in your thighs then you would really have no other alternative then lipo,

I've lost 5 kilos in my first week. It's my 10th day and I have included salad with some protein (eg. egg/ lean chicken) as you suggested. After 4 years of trying, the fat is finally coming off. It truly feels like magic!
Get started today!

After seeing this I feel the need to share something because I spent many years jumping from diet to diet without any success until I saw Pams magic plan (i found it on google). It is without a doubt the best weight loss that I have ever achieved and I have kept it off to this day.

Congrats! Based on my own experience the best leg workout to tone and slim your thighs, to do a lot of squats do the trick really well. Make sure your knees are not leaning forward though when you do it.

keep in mind a few things though.. firstly, it is impossible to target only one specific area and also swimming will allow you to gain muscle and burn fat but you should incorporate some other cardio like running so your body doesnt get to used to swimming 20 laps. Keeping your body guessing will increase the intensity and speed of visual changes
