The hips, thighs and legs of women are an important area of their overall beauty.
Strangely enough, while some women are not fat in their bust and waist, their lower body parts are fleshy and ugly.
One reason for this is that women are generally more susceptible to collecting cellulite in these areas than men.
So, taking care of these problem areas is not just a question of looking beautiful and sexy, it is also essential to avoid contracting pain in knees and legs, which have to bear the burden of carrying more flesh than they can easily endure.
Apart from pain, it becomes difficult for women with fat thighs and legs to walk, run, cycle or swim smoothly and swiftly.
