| I was at the gym last night with my bf and after our workout I stepped on the scale and wasn't really thrilled, yet disappointed either. I weighed in at 135 when I've been actually weighing in at 132 the whole week, must be water weight. ANYWAYS, a personal trainer approached me and offered her "service" in helping me achieve my goals. Well... that service package ranges from $149 to $649, I'm not able to afford such prices right now.I'm what they call a "pear shape" so my question is what are the BEST exercises to do that will help me better shape my hips down to my thighs and maybe calves?My upper body is the least of my worries. This is my routine now: Gym Mon, Wed, Fri and I work with weights for my arms, back and chest, and use the machines like leg extensions, leg curls, leg press..ect for my leg workouts. Tue and Thurs I run, jog, walk. I feel as if I'm not doing enough or the correct workouts for my target area. Please help or give me your adviseI guess I have to also add that I DO eat healthy 6 days a week and on Saturdays I usually workout both upper and lower body, but with less weights or more like a "lighter" 1 hour workout than the other 5 days.I am 5'6 and yes I am within my healthy weight range, BUT I would like to slim down some AND THEN tone up and I believe you can't tone up unless you slim down. So Yes, I would like a firmer but and and thighs, not a flat butt and jiggly thighs. Although I am at a healthy weight range, mind you that most of my weight is stored on my hips and thighs and I would love to be proportioned! |

| I would take up running for your cardio workouts. It makes you long and lean and really tones up your calves, hamstrings and quads. You can also do squats and lunges to tone your glutes (butt) and your quads and hamstrings. Lower weight, higher repetition will tone and not add bulk. Your hips should tone up as you do these exercises as well. |

Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
