same deal here! All you can do is tone them up! You must strength train in addition to your jogging-works wonders! I have lost about 5 inches toal from thighs since I incorporated weights!

Find a guy with bigger hands. J/K. leg lifts, squats, and brisk walking will tone it, a strict no fat diet will slim it down.

Leaner doesnt necessarily mean you have to "work them out" - you may want to try Pilates or Yoga - remember to stretch..\n\nLeg extensions will help as well - you can find most routines for this on line - extensions of the leg in exercise fashion will help get the leaner look ... \n\nhope this helps

For your legs I would suggest going to a gym and using the Leg Press Machine.... But since you have bad knees, only do a few reps at a time.. Start out with a light weight and only bring it down as far as you feel comfortable with.\n\nFor your arms, do curls... It'll burn the fat and turn some of it into muscle, which will give you a toned look. You should start out with a weight that you can only do about 10 curls with until you start to feel it.... One of the major mistakes that women make is that they get those little 5 pound weights and do 20 or more reps and it does almost nothing for them..... Anyway, continue to use that weight until it becomes easy for you, and then get a heavier one and repeat.\n\nDon't worry, It won't make you look overly muscular... It'll simply burn the fat and tone your arms, giving you a "fit" look.... \n\nAnd both exercises will only take a few minutes out of your day.\n\nAs mentioned, swimming is a good one for the arms and the legs too... But some people either can't swim (or don't like to) or they don't have enough time to swim for it to actually impact their health.

I'm assuming you mean "legs."  There is no way that you can make your legs grow fatter.  If you eat a lot, all of you will probably get fatter.  Although some people have very skinny legs no matter how fat they are.\n\nYou can, however, make your legs more muscular by exercising.  Bike riding, stair climbing, leg lifts. Go to GOOGLE.COM, enter "leg excercise". You will find many.\n\nAs for the making them smoother part:  Exfoliate them with a wash cloth when you bathe. You can even use a soft brush.  This will take off the dead skin cells. These dead skin cells is what makes your legs look ashy.  Always put lotion on your legs.  If you can stand it, put baby oil on them at night if you don't want to look greasy all day.  You can also use oils that contain vitamins.   Any type of oil will do; you can even use cooking oil.  As a matter of fact, petroleum jelly also works.

Home remedy for cellulite. \n\nMassage: If you have a bulging belly, give a massage to your body and do sit-ups every day. Skipping also reduces the bulge in the belly.\n\nScientists lay stress on the intake of calcium instead of exercises or dieting to become slim and thin. Calcium releases a kind of hormone which maintains balance between the metabolism and blood-circulation. It burns the calories and the excess weight automatically reduces. Calcium intake in the food should be increased.\n\nAvoid excessive consumption of coffee, alcohol, very high fat foods like chocolate and candy.\n\nEat regular amounts of fresh fruit.\n\nPay attention to your diet. The right balanced diet is the best natural cellulite remedy.\n\nStrength training is an important natural cellulite remedy, which will reduce the appearance of cellulite as it increases muscle tone and decreases total body fat. But the way you strength train is even more important. A program that targets fat loss in the lower body, specifically hips, thighs and buttocks is ideal for most women.\n\nAvoid unnecessary medication: in particular, avoid diet-pills and sleeping pills.\n\nTea: To reduce weight take tea with mint leaves added to it.\n\nTake regular exercise, ideally in the fresh air. If outside exercise is impossible, do it inside. Or, do a regular series of breathing exercises

lie on your side and do straight leg raises in the air.  That will tighten the thigh muslces and work generally on the legs.   Squats work well too.\nIf your wanting to lose the fat, also while doing this- be on a diet.  Instead of eating 3 big meals a day, eat 4-5 smaller portioned meals a day.  Reason for this is because 4-5 small meals/day helps to increase your metabloism and escentially help you lose weight.  \n\nGood luck!

I know this sounds silly, but take Saran Wrap and wrap the area(s) you want to slim down.  Exercise with this on and those wrapped areas will sweat more than the other areas.  It does help; I've tried it before.

Walking, jogging, dancing, elliptical, cycling, stair climbing, and the crossramp machine will help tone your thighs.  You may be built with a pear-shape body so even though you want to greatly reduce your thighs, you may never get it proportional unless you have surgery.  I don't recommend surgery.

I think if  you just squeeze the cheeks a few times for a long time until you feel a burn, that may be the easiest way to go, but don't take my word for it. I've never done it. I believe squats are a fabulous way to get nice buns and thighs.

Walk everyday. That will help you slim down all over but more so the legs. Also, to tone the calf muscles as you slim down, do some calf lifts with lite weights. Stand up straight up with maybe a 5 pound dumbell in each hand. Then just stand up on your tippytoe and come back down. Do maybe 3 sets of 25 each morning. Don't use to much weight as you will bulk up the calf muscles. You said you wanted to slim them.  Try the above and then adjust as to what best suits you.

Sounds like cellulite to me.  If so, jumping rope will get rid of that faster.
