How to tone my thighs
How I did it: I drastically changed my diet, eliminating all the greasy foods I used to eat. I started eating a diet of primarily fruits, veggies and lean protein. I started my day off with a fruit smoothie, had a big salad for lunch, and either a salad or chicken/fish with veggies for lunch. I snack on a lot of fruit and nuts throughout the day. I also allowed myself to eat things if I had a craving. If I wanted fried chicken, I ate it. Just not a lot. Same thing with desserts.
I also vowed to NOT use elevators or escalators unless there were no stairs, or if I had too many things in my hands or was just too tired. That helped a lot. I made sure to walk at least 20 minutes a day, and I do yoga for 30 minutes or so each day. That's it! I actually dropped my gym membership because I prefer working out at home.
Lessons & tips: Give it time and DO NOT USE A SCALE! Rely on your pants or measuring tape to track your progress. I was a chronic scale abuser (I'm talking getting on the scale at least 5x a day), so this was difficult. But now I just use my body to let me know what I should adjust.
Resources: A positive attitude and patience!
