Hi again Kelly

Like Linz said, give it time. 1/2 an inch is actually pretty good for just getting started. Good for you for doing so much exercise, but make sure you're watching what you eat also if you want to lose weight. Not just calories - since you're exercising more you probably need more calories, and if you're not eating more than you were before, you already have a calorie deficit - make sure you're eating WELL too, i.e. not much junk, lots of good healthy food etc.

Re: calves - losing a bit of weight will almost certainly make them appear smaller. If it's primarily the *muscle* that you feel is too big then just don't do anything lol Any kind of exercise you do with it is just going to make the muscle bigger, so just leave it alone for a while and build up your other muscles. Cardio that involves legs such as running, and particularly any kind of plymetrics exercises (i.e try ending your runs with a few jumps, just squat deep and jump explosively up) will assist with slimming down the legs - calves included

HTH
