good news is peoples appreciation for a large round booty has grown expotentially in recent yrs. i don't think cutting out weights such as squats, lunges, leg curls, and calf rises is a good idea. keeping reps in the 15-20 range will add muscle and give you a shape most women would kill for. plus, more muscle means more calories burned while at rest. considering we are at rest far more than we are moving would be huge plus. many women make the mistake of cardio only for the lower body and wonder why fat loss is such a struggle. and remember, the goal is really fat loss so don't just measure your weight loss.
