Why am I having problems losing fat on my thighs but my boyfriend loves that?

[Anonymous]

So for nine months I have been working on my weight loss journey and losing inches. I lost a shirt size but my pants size is STILL THE SAME SIZE! I don’t understand!!! It’s so frustrating! I went from a size 18W to a size 14W in shirt size, but in pants I’m still a size 16W/18W IN PANTS! I don’t get it! In photos, I still look weird. I mean I do look good but my hips, thighs and belly are still huge! Well my belly flattened a bit. I’ve always been insecure about my body but most girls get annoyed by me when I complain about my pear shame and they wish they had it. My petite best friend (4’10, slim) said she hates being thin and wishes she was thick like me. I wish I was small and petite but instead I look like a huge gorilla.

My boyfriend (5’8 and slim and toned) LOVES my big ass and jiggly thighs. He loves that I have a problem with losing inches in my bottom part of my body and it’s still huge. He said, “Why would you want to slim down your hips, thighs and ass? To put it bluntly, I’m kind of glad you have a problem sliming down your thighs because big thighs are sexy. I never understood why most girls and women want to slim down when most guys love curves and women look better with weight on them.”

I mean I’m flattered he loves my plus sizes self and he’s honest but I don’t like it and sometimes clothes fit a little tight, even though they fit. Plus being tall and overweight just been a problem for me and i feel like being slim would look better. Even some of my family and friends thinks l look better before I lost weight. I went from 230lbs to 199lbs. I’m 5’11 if you’re wondering. I’ve been doing weight lifting and cardio. My thighs won’t fucking change!!

Just gotta lose more weight. All of our bodies prefer to store fat in different areas. It also shifts fat around sometimes as we lose. The best thing we can do is just get lean & maintain that lean weight.

I love my wife’s thick thighs and she hates them too. It’s just one of those things you gotta trust us guys on - we know what we like. 😉

We don’t care what you men like! I don’t know about your wife but I was slim thighs and my boyfriend can’t to shit to stop me!
My boyfriend says sometimes women don’t always realize what they have is very attractive and their men love it and don’t change just because of stupid society.
Look yes but I’m sick of being big and my legs looking big.

Our body's natural tendency to store fat in certain areas can be influenced by your genetics. Some people are genetically predisposed to store more fat in their thighs. Just keep doing what you are doing.

You need to exercise on your lower part.

That’s what I’m doing.
