Cellulite is there forever. Even the thinnest women have it. You probably are genetically predisposed to having cellulite. As long as you have fat in your body, cellulite will be there. Think of it this way, your muscles act like a screen door, and the fat acts like clay. When you press the clay through the screen door, you get that "lumpy" look - the same with our body. Its the fat pressing against the muscle. try to tone your muscles though - that might help you to look a little more "firm".

You might try running or walking, but you might have to seek your Dr.s advise of know of 2 people that lost over a hundred pounds and the flab or excess skin did not shrink and they had to have it surgically removed

The kicker is my mirror and my favourite pair of jeans, seeing old school friends who have become fat and neglected their appearance, also I want my kids to be proud of their mum and my husband to continue to be attracted by me! I'm a determined person and I won't give up on something until I've reached my goal. You just have to know what's good for you and take it as a challenge.

Running or any other form of cardio, Leg Presses or Squats all of these are great for trimming down those thighs and toning the rest of your legs and buttocks. A combination of these would be best

No "cream" or "lotion" is going to get rid of cellulite.  The effects are temporary because of the massaging required to rub the stuff into your legs.  All the massaging causes the skin to swell, therefore reducing the appearance of cellulite.  It does not actually eat away at the cellulite.  Best thing is diet and exercise.  There is no magic cream or pill.  If there were, we'd all be taking them :o)  The only other alternative is surgery ~ and that costs big $$$$$

You have to get surgery to have it taken off, or there is special treatments that take about 6 months of treatment to take off. You can not get rid of cellulite by exersizing or any of that. I would look around in the yellow pages and google for programs.

The boobs are the first to go.  That is how weight loss in women works.  You might want to use more targeting excerices for the thighs and hips.

I HAD THAT EXACT PROBLEM YEARS AGO. TRY WALKING THE STAIRS. USE THE STAIRS AS A FORM OF EXERCISE. IT WILL NOT ONLY THIN YOUR THIGHS BUT IT'LL ALSO LIFT YOUR BUTT.

Hey I can totally relate! I have that too.\n\nI've always worn shirts with long sleeves or 3/4 sleeves because of my keratosis pilaris. I've always liked fall/winter better because everyone's wearing longsleeves.\n\nI only found out the name for the condition last year when I visited a dermatologist. She prescribed some ointment and lotion and they helped. It made my skin really dry at first, but it worked and the bumps are smooth! I haven't kept up with it, but I will definitely go back to doing it when summer/spring is here again. I'm sorry I don't have the prescriptions anymore. :(\n\nBut there are a lot of good sites out there with info about it and "how to's" on coping with it.\n\nThis wikipedia article has good info and links to other sites:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keratosis_pilaris\n\nJust want you to know you are not alone! :)

Why don't you try doing squats or roller blading to tone up your bottom half?  Also, it could be that your butt and thighs are hereditary, so there may not be much you can do about it except tone them up.  I used to think I had the same problem but I came to grips with the fact that I was just built this way, so why stress?

That is SO FABULOUS.  You need to change your screen name now!\nYou're young and the skin might still pop back into shape. Drink a lot of water and keep exercising. Drinking water while exercising helps the skin keep its shape.\nYou might want to moisturize also.  There are many nice body moisturizers that don't smell "girly"--I included a link below to one.  If you massage the skin while moisturizing, it will help with the elasticity.\nI'm very happy for you!

No, you don't need to lose weight, even supermodles get cellulite. Your weight and hight are very healthy. What you have to do is firm up the area. Do leg lifts, squats.. anything that will tighten up the leg area.\n\nAlso, I read somewhere that stars use a self tanner to 'hide' the appearence of it.

Not going to happen.  You'll only lose water weight and it can make you sick.  There's no way to lose weight from specific body parts, you have to do cardio to help shed pounds all over and then toning exercises to develop and tighten the muscles in your stomach and legs.  It usually takes about a month to start seeing results.  If you have some event you're going to and want to look sleek, try one of those body shapers.  They are an easy way to reduce bulges in all the wrong places.  It's almost like losing weight in five minutes!

I do the same thing quite often. No I'm not trying to pick up girls! I have a small rash that builds up from sweat, or whatever. The only thing that gets rid of it is taking it off for a few weeks. Sometimes I refuse to take it off and believe me it will after awhile make me. Looks like the skin is dissolving! Hope this helps, cause the only other reason I can think for taking this thing off would be unacceptable!
