Good for you. I've been trying to get off the extra pounds. I've lost 7 - have about 5 more to go.

Believe it or not I still use the thigh master, just do slower reps, you feel it more, and I try to go walking or running too.

I do squats with a workout ball behind my back. I lean it against the wall and squat all the way down (4 sets of 16 - slowly) and you can really feel the burn!

Re: GIRLS!!! Whats a good Thigh Firming exercise?
I was working with a trainer for a few months who helped me begin to shape up my thighs (God I miss him!) by doing walking lunges, regular lunges holding 5-8 lb weights, and squats (sometimes holding hand weights or sometimes with a weight bar across my shoulders) You can do all these at home.
If you go to a gym, the leg press machines are great, but make sure you allow yourself to lower your butt as close to the foot rest plate thing as you can . We also did cable squats on that weight machine with the cable that can be moved to the top or bottom. He lowered the cable to the bottom and then put the straight bar on it and set the plates at a weight that was challenging for me to squat and stand up bringing the plates up and down. Kind of like water skiing. I have to say I felt the squats and lunges with simple hand weights or the bar were the best and my trainer recommended them above the machines.

The Firm workout videos work very well also. I got the tapes at BJs and it came with the 2 steps that are required (approx. 8 inches and 5 inches). As you progress, you step up onto a 14 inch step (they fit together). It makes your butt and thighs very tight if you keep up with it. Their claim that you'll see results in 10 workout is true.
