Terry Bellas. They are extremely compressive, long, with a yoga type waist band. The chamois is not too thick, either.

I have found that I can't do the shorts with gripperless compression bands at the bottom. Those give me the worst sausage thighs...it seems to not matter the brand.
The shorts that are most flattering on me are the Pearl Izumi Symphony short, with the Elite level chamois. I also like the PRO short with the PRO chamois. These may be more chamois than you'd like, though. But I can definitely sympathize on the small-waist-with-thunder-thighs thing.

Thanks for the recommendations! Hopefully I can start buying them, and try them (with underwear of course, I'm no idiot), ride it on the trainer and return them if they don't fit.
SHOPPING TIME! Who doesn't love Shopping for cycling clothes!! :-)
