I love knowing that although my butt/hips/legs are larger than I'd like- they are POWERFUL and propel me forward on the bike and run. I take pride in my larger bottom half, cuz those skinny girls at the gym ain't got nothin' on my endurance and power.
HAHA!

Reminds me.... when I go shop for jeans and a sales associate tries to help me, I will tell them, "I have thunder thighs and I need jeans that they can fit into".

They just look at me like they can't believe I am putting myself down so horribly.

Then I promptly say, "But I'm proud of them. I have thighs of muscle, not those skinny thighs with no muscle in them."
