ahhhhh, in that case I wouldn't over do it with the weighted squats etc...
I'm guessing you are trying to decrease the overall thickness in your legs etc... Depending on how easily you gain mass, overdoing it on the squats could backfire.
You should still do resistance, I would recommend going at least 20+ reps though.
The big thing for you will be diet diet diet. A pound of fat can be relatively hard to lose. Each pound contains about 3500 calories. Unfortunately, there is no easy way out. Keep exercising, keep a healthy diet.
By healthy diet, I don't mean "health foods" and avoiding meat. Lean meat is great for you.
