Just to clear some things up because I’m being downvoted, probably because my title and post are poorly worded and that’s my bad. I don’t care about karma I just want to make sure this post isn’t being taken in the wrong direction.

I have never (fortunately) suffered with an eating disorder or body dysmorphia. I do not intend to lose weight and if toning up areas mean I gain muscle and therefore weight, that’s great! I have no problem with that.

I have a good relationship with food and do not skip meals. I had a health check recently where I was told I am in the healthy weight range for my stature and height. I have always been petite.

My goal is to TONE my thighs and waist/stomach, although I appreciate that my title and post don’t reflect that amazingly. I do store fat in these areas, maybe that is just how it will always be which is fine because it’s my body and keeps me alive :) I was just looking for some advice for how to refine these parts of my body.

If anyone feels as if this post is promoting anything else other than a healthy and physically strong and fit outcome, then I hope the above clears that up.
