I've been doing a lot of jogging to slim up from winter and get ready for summer, and my legs look pretty great and are pretty firm. But I'm still jiggly and bigger than I want to be in my thighs and butt area. What sorts of exercises could I do to tone up this problem area? Would squats work, or would that just bulk up my thighs more?

hey,
i guess we're all in search of that swimsuit body. You have to keep on jogging to lose the weight. By doing squats its will tone your bum, and give you the curves you need. do about 3 sets of 15 reps. if this is too easy, hold some weight, use an unstable surface, or other variations. remeber cardio is the key to losing the weight.
good luck on the sexy bum:)

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)
