I wish I had that problem....haha.  My lower legs have always swelled so my ankles look pretty big.  I thought when I lost all of this weight I wouldn't swell as bad but that didn't happen.

I have always had bigger legs so they didn't shrink much at all....

not me either.  I have thigh gap (is that what the kids call it when your thighs don't rub together) but they aren't skinny by any means.  But I walk, swim, muscle pump, ride ponies so I guess I have pretty much muscle in my legs.

I have always been an apple shake with thinner legs and since the weight loss,  it hasn't changed. Although with all of the walking and walk/jogs I do my legs have gotten pretty muscular, which isn't a bad thing. I guess we keep the same shapes, but are just smaller.

You're really lucky actually - I have the same apple-shaped body .  The closer your fat is to the heart the easier it is to lose so all you really have to do to balance things out is EXERCISE . I have always loved having great legs ... miniskirts and tight jeans are my comfort zone ...its a lot easier to cover up perceived flaws with cute structured little jackets than to hide fat hips and legs and/or a  flat ass .(n which I have by the way lol)  

Heres my advice - buy comfortable platform shoes that you can stride in which  really play up the length and shape of your legs .  Show them off with CONFIDENCE nothing is sexier than a woman who moves well and struts... a loose silky top covered by a dark colored cardigan or tight little jacket visual takes off the weight on tpp.  

As an apple the scary season for me is sleeveless crop-top season than God we'[re over that .  Now its smooth sailing the rest of the year ! (((())))
