find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats, take 300-400 calories off that number and that's how much you need to lose weight.
5-8servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water a day
5-6 small meals instead of 3 big ones (breakfast is the most important - make sure to get complex carbs like whole wheat bread, oatmeal, fruit etc)
4-6 times a week cardio for 30-50min, light weight training, many reps
no junk food, no sodas, no alcohol, no white flour (cakes, cookies, white bread, pasta etc.), nothing high in sugar (ice cream)

Yes there are many exercises that will firm and tone your thighs. I have listed some links below.
Make sure you stick with a work out plan and don't over do it. Cut down on fatty foods too. You should see some results in no time.
Try biking and swimming too.

If you reduce your normal calorie intake just 500 calories a day, you'll loose 1 pound a week. 3500 calories=1 pound. Increase your exercise a little and you could safely loose a little more.

If you drink sodas stop and drink more water. Do not forget to eat meals on a regular basis. Because your body needs feul.

there are no excercises that can pinpoint one area of the body and decrease fat...
you can do certain exercises to tone the muscles though.
try squats, and lunges, leg extensions etc
good luck!! :)
