The Best Jeans for Your Body

If you have a muscular or curvy lower body...

Do: Choose a darker wash to minimize your build; find jeans with some Lycra in them for a more comfortable fit.
Don't: Be afraid to show your shape. Avoid baggy silhouettes, which can make you look heavier than you are.

If you have saddlebags or a pear shape...

Do: Choose shades darker near outer and inner thighs to slenderize them; wear a boot cut to elongate the legs.
Don't: Wear jeans that are too stretchy; they'll hug in the wrong places.

If you have a narrow build or flat butt...

Do: Get pockets that are on an angle to give the illusion of shape; wear low-rise cuts to show off your waistline.
Don't: Go too baggy.

If you have belly pooch...

Do: Choose a mid-rise or classic fit to camouflage your middle.
Don't: Go too tight. Beware "muffin top."

For these excercises you need stairs. What if you live in a one-floor house?

You should really try Yoga. It is great for thighs and trouble spots for women. I have been to hundreds of Yoga classes throughout my life and always see the most beautifully shaped women in those classes, it doesn't matter if they are 18 or 58 years old, most of those gals are Knockouts.. Make sure to keep your back straight so that your legs do most of the work and get most of the benefit. Good Luck!!! http://www.fightobesity.net/how-to-lose-weight-in-your-thighs.html
