Initially, it may appear that your legs are getting bigger because muscle will be developing under the fat. As you lose the fat, however, your legs should be slimmer and more toned than before.

I would say that only running on a treadmill will not help. You will need to get healthy as well. And depending on what type of dieting you are doing well depend on what type of results you will get. In general you should loose fat and gain muscle.

Running on the treadmill will burn calories as long as you don't consume more calories through your eating habits than you burn off by exercising. Your muscles will not get bigger by doing the treadmill, as it is rapid exercise. Muscles usually develop by slow and resistance exercises, such as weight lifting.

They will slim down and tone up. To really gain muscle mass you have to weight train, and not just do cardio.

I don't think they will look slimer, but it will be noticeable that it is muscle now. They wont jiggle as much and you might see a line where the muscle is.

They'll most likely get bigger muscles. But that means less fat.

i think so yes since it is a cardio workout but you might just want to eat a little healthier also while still eating about the same amount.
