What exercises can I do to slim my legs and lose some of that flab? I've been doing squats and stuff but that doesnt seem to be all that effective.
Please help!

Hi! I have the same problem as you, so i joined a gym and asked a trainer the same question. The reply I got was that cardio work was the best solution(jogging or cycling) any cardio work that gets your heart beat at around 163, depending on your age. If you jog at a heart beat of 163 for an hour, then you wuld definately be melting fat. Jogging slims legs down, sprinting makes them bulky. Thats why long distance joggers have slim, toned legs while sprinters have bulky, muscular legs. With your cardio work, the trainer recommended a reduced calorie diet. Reducing calories optimises your fat burning. There are many books on the low calorie diet around :)
Btw, squats dont work according to my trainer. If you want to tone them, try lunges.
Good luck! tell me how it goes!!

Go for a run, or run in one place (jumping up and down) with music!
dance, move for everything, take every oportunity to get up and move.
Someone asking you to go here and there, GO!
Forget to grab something somewhere, GO GET IT!
Always mooooove.

Skipping rope can tone your calves up for sure.
