My legs are looking really awkward after HRT

I haven't really noticed it much but I am starting to.. There's so much fat on my thighs but when you go below the knee it looks strange. It is really really skinny.. my feet are kind of wide so it is sustaining quite well for now but my knees have started to feel wobbly. Today I was walking and my legs kinda trip and for the first time in my life I kind of struggle to catch my balance. Next thing I look in the mirror and I notice how big my thighs have gotten but the rest of the legs look like spider legs. :(

I am not so much worried look wise but it would help a lot if the fat distributed more proportionally.. Is there anything I can do to increase my fat on my lower legs so it doesn't put so much stress on my knee joint?

I also notice my feet feeling less cushiony.. is this normal? Shouldn't my feet get fatter or a little thicker. So far it seems to be more of bad news for my feet :(

I think the thighs was what changed the most from HRT I have some major stretch marks. When trying on jeans my thighs usually what makes me go and pick a larger size.

I don't have much fat on lower legs but I don't think I look awkward either.

I was borderline anorexic when I started HRT, put on 20kg after HRT and I'd still consider myself thin.
I will touch a 100 flowers and not pick one.

Most cis women with larger hips and thighs also have small calves so I don't know if there's too much to be worried about unless your unhappy with it. There could be ways to reduce your thigh size with workouts but beyond that there's not to much you can do about small legs unless you try to build up your calf muscle. Both of which is a bit harder to do on hrt. Feet have also been reported to shrink some for a few of us here and there. That means that muscle mass is shrinking in your feet, more than likely, and could be causing your feet to feel less cushioned.

I guess there's not much I can do then :/ I have tried exercising but it is hard to be motivated when you see no progress.
I suppose you can't have everything..

If anything my legs have improved since HRT. Look better than ever. However, due to their thickness, finding good looking skinny pants or jeans is tough without spending lots of money. That's why I stick with skirts plus they feel better anyway. Still have no hips so my legs look funny attached to a hipless backside :(
