personal measurement question

[L Sass]

I know this is a personal question, so if you choose to not answer, please just don't answer - please don't flame me. I hate my thunder thighs. Even now that I've dropped a lot of pounds on my Cinch program, I still feel that my thighs are disproportionate. I know - genetics, muscle developments, etc, etc, etc.. I also know that strong quads are one of the best ways to battle osteoarthritis, blah, blah, blah. I know all of that - doesn't make me any happier with my thunder thighs. Just wondering how far out of wack I am - for those who don't mind sharing, what are your thigh measurements.

My thighs are 21". I'd like them to be smaller, but that's a lot smaller than they used to be

 

[pink_fortitude]

Are you going to tell us yours, too?

Mine are 23", and the only way that they could get any smaller than that is if I starve myself. I don't like being hungry, I am mean when I am hungry, so I am happy to be where I am. So are the people that have to live with me.

Oh thank you ladies! When I started Cinch in September mine were 25 - now they are at 23 - so I guess maybe it's not the size that's out of proportion - it's the JIGGLE! Though if I could get rid of the jiggle they'd likely be smaller too. It really is an unending quest huh? Many thanks - you've helped me a lot.

22" and shrinking..... down 2.5" since Jan 2006 (found Cathe)

Was about 22.5 two and a half years ago. With lipo, Cathe and Jari Love, now 21"

Mine were in the neighborhood of 21" last I checked. I too wish they were a bit smaller but that's not gonna happen and I've finally learned to accept it.

Mine are 19 1/4. Overall, I'm happy with them but I wish I didn't have that extra little bit of fat on the inner thigh that no matter what I do I just can't seem to get rid of.

Mine are 19 and a half to 20 inches, but remember that I am short, standing at only 5'2" tall. If your thighs are muscular, they may measure a bit larger so I wouldn't sweat it.

How about hip measurements? I am hippy, with 36 to 37 inches around the widest part. I would love to be 35 inches, but I need to lose about 7 more pounds to get down there. I am very anemic now, and I have had to cut down on my workouts.

Mine are 19.5. Believe me, they were MUCH bigger! I think running has certainly helped (huh Tig!!)
Marcy, I know what you mean! The very upper inner area! What a pain!LOL!!
I have gotten the hips down to 36.5.

DOn't forget that everyone's body type and frame are different, so I am sure you look great!

Marcy,

I totally agree! My thighs are in the neighborhood of 22" (haven't measured recently), but even my 5yo daughter who's skinny as a rail has a little bit of fat on her inner thighs. *sigh* victim of my genetics, lol.

Where on your thighs is everyone measuring? I think that does make a difference.

I measure at the very widest part. Mine are around 19 inches. I'm a runner too, but my thighs have always been this size. I have very long limbs and am 5'7" tall.

My hips are 34 inches.

 

[candi]

I measure at the widest part. About two inches from the very top. I am only 5', as you can imagine, very short limbs. I am an endomorph with 26.5 inch waist and 36 inch hips.
