My wife has a tendency to gain any extra weight, the little that she has, especially her pregnancy weight on her hips and thighs.

If you want to lose weight on thighs, you will need to work on it, and be careful of what exercises and strength training you do. The biggest problem I have seen and heard about is the myth that you just start using heavier weights and you will be able to lose the weight on your thighs. That is simply, not true. In fact, it does the opposite! Instead of making your thighs smaller, doing that will generally make your thighs bigger.
What you will want to do, is watch what you eat, making sure you eat plenty of protein and fiber which gives you the energy to continue to exercise and strength train. The best strength training exercises to lose weight on thighs are squats, lunges, and leg lifts. You will want to use lighter weights and do more reps. This will strengthen your current muscles, and tone your thighs. Squats and lunges are pretty similar. With the squats, you will want to stand with your feet shoulder width apart and lighter weights in your hands. Using your knees, you will bend down as far as you are able to without having to use any other body part to stand back up. The lunge is the same technique, but with alternating with the right and the left foots a little forward. With the leg lifts, you will want to stand straight, holding onto something for support if you desire. Alternating feet and directions from front, back and side leg lifts. You may also want to consider lying on your side, your top leg bent over your bottom leg, as far up the leg as you are able to. With the bottom leg, you will start doing simple leg kicks straight up and down! It burns, so you are able to tell quite quickly that it is working.
You are definitely able to lose weight on thighs will determination, patience and watching your caloric intake as well as watching what you eat, and weight an exercise and strength training routine meant specifically to build up and tone muscle in your thighs.
