Your tights get bigger due to exercise. I think you did quite a lot og jogging right? Maybe you can switch to other exercises?

hi. well first you can try to clean up your diet, to lose more weight. if you can take brown rice, instead of white..whole grain bread instead of white bread..try to do different exercises, like skipping, dancing, aerobics, pilates. if you do different workouts, its more effective. drink alot of water, it keeps your metabolism high, and cleanses impurities. green tea is also good. try eating more fruits and vegetables...if you want to lose weight you have to do atleast 45minutes atleast 4times a week, from what i heard. if you want to slim down your thighs, maybe brisk walking, climbing up the stairs, would help. and also, instead of eating 3 meals a day, eat six smaller portions to keep metabolism high.

Well if you're just looking for weight loss or cellulite reduction in specific areas, you can try carboxytherapy. Its quite effective but a little unconfortable. 1-2 sessions and I could see some results on my thighs. Not too expensive, about $100-$200 per area. There is an Australian trained doctor whom I go to nearby at Goldhill Plaza. (spring laser clinic). Anyway, I hope this helps.

Slimming gel has to be used on a long-term basis...must be consistent also, and it only helps to smooth out cellulite, dun think it can help much with the fats though..

Hi it is not ordinary slimming gel...
got this from its description..
I have highlighted its benefits in BOLD

Gel Amincissante
In sync with urbanites' comprehensive healthcare needs, the concept of body aesthetics has evolved from the blind emphasis on body sculpturing to its correct understanding. In reality, fats are easily accumulated in the body due to excessive intake of calories, resulting in its inability to be consumed, as well as ineffective metabolism and circulation. Of course, diet control and frequent exercise are channels for remedy. Urbanites are also starting to indulge in the fragrance of spa, allowing plant essential oils to sculpture elegant and fluid contours for their bodies.

The origins of plant essential oils have been lost in textual research. However, since the dawn of civilisation, the usage of natural plant essential oils has been found in recorded history. Essential oils were popular among the ancient Egyptians, who used them for medical and beauty purposes. Due to their chemical stability, they have also become top-grade aromatic essence much sought after by high society ladies of Europe. Their magical effects can also be gleaned from traditional Chinese medicinal records.

Components and Effects

Gel Amincissante is extracted from seven kinds of natural plant essential oils. Besides its ability to penetrate the capillary to bring chi to the surface layer of the skin, it can also enhance blood circulation, reduce the accumulation of fats and invigorate the meridian and bones, achieving the Chinese medical effect of cupping and scrapping and effectively alleviating fatigue and rheumatism.

Gel Amincissante is extracted from peppermint, essential oil complex, cane, rosemary, gulfweed, marjoram, thyme and other plants. Their effects are as follows:

Peppermint and Marjoram: Famous for their warming effects on the spirit and physique. As they promote the expansion of capillary below the skin, they are hence very effective for alleviating muscle fatigue, tightness and pain resulting from vigorous exercise.

Gulfweed and Cane: Able to effectively penetrate the skin, enhance blood circulation, strengthen the in-depth lymphatic lead, purge accumulated moisture and toxins and promote the decomposition and metabolism of fats, infusing vitality and vigour into the skin organisation.

Rosemary: Has a wide variety of uses. Besides its ability to kill germs and purify the air, it can also stimulate blood circulation and enhance metabolism to achieve a refined and sculptured posture within a short period of time.

Thyme: Similar to many other essential oils, it is infused with either stimulating or calming functions or a balance of both that invigorates the spirit and aids in sleep. Its unique function enables it to relieve rheumatism.

Essential oil complex: Contains seaweed extract which can reduce fats and attain slimming results.

All in all, Gel Amincissante helps in slimming, weight control, blood circulation and metabolism and alleviates rheumatism, arthritis, bruises, inflammation, swelling, muscle ache and other symptoms.

Usage: Cleanse skin thoroughly and apply a thin layer of gel in the morning and night daily. Do not wipe or rinse off as the gel will dry naturally. The light gel is refreshingly cool and not oily at all. Your skin will turn red and heat up after 1 minute. This is normal as the ingredients are taking effect in enhancing blood circulation and metabolism of fats. This product is equally suitable for people not affected by weight problems. Adjust the measure according to individual needs.
