In two months you will certainly have bigger legs and the extra burn will be worth it.

Squats, and leg work in general, are great for building up muscle and in turn boosting metabolism. Just be mindful of using proper form, especially with squats. Throwing out your back or buckling a knee because you aren't using proper form is going to derail any type of fitness program.
