female only Legs

[CowgirlJane 14,260]

Okay, I know this sounds weird, but as a formerly obese, I still hate wearing things that I think make me look bigger than I am. My calves are like 13.5 " but I have big feet - 9s usually, so every boot I try on is big around the calf. One pair, they actually sorta fell down while I walked around the store. So, I realized that every model has skinny legs (way skinnier than mine!) and they don't seem worried about it so I just need to get over it, but it feels weird to wear boots that I feel like I could put my arm in there too.... As an apple shape, I never had thick legs (well except the horror that was my inner thigh) and I don't think I measured them pre WLS so not sure how much they shrunk.

I lost 230 pound and went from a definite pear shape to a classic hour glass - expect the best.

whom. I would think it may be lack of exercise, if you work to perfect every part of your body, you will win, strength training is key, look at every aspect you want to change and zero in on it like a bulls eye, I will tell you when I looked my best it was because of serious resistance training, u will not bulk as long as you do plenty of cardio! hope this helps good luck

I've always had curvy legs, and I think it's hot, so... *shrugs*

I was always a classic hourglass but I have not lost my belly yet that I got with being over 200. I am just past halfway and hoping my waist will show up soon. my legs are much better muscle wise thanks to many trips in the living room on the exercise bike. I cant wait to see how I am in 6 months. love sara

I had the same problem looking for before and after of people with big legs. I found some on ig but here is my before and during... because I still have more to lose. I workout with a trainer 3x a week.
