Please help, I've just seen the most unflattering picture of myself. I'm playing sport and my legs are out. The photo is an action shot and my legs, oh god they look awful. Flabby and covered in cellulite! Anyone know of any good exercises or a miracle cream that'll help.

Losing weight and toning up will help, but tbh there are slim toned people with cellulite too - it's all to do with the shape of your fat cells apparently Sad.

Detoxing (lots of water, cut down caffeine, alcohol, dairy and no smoking) will help too but it's very dull!

I am a size 8 and yet have awful cellulite due to poor circulation which is a common reason for many women. Keeping moving throughout the day (if you do a desk job) can help, toning up, gentle exfoliating and/or body brushing and using daily moisturiser. I wouldn't necessarily bother with a so-called "miracle" cream because any moisturiser or oil applied vigorously to the skin will help smooth it's appearance. IME, Palmers Cocoa Butter is an excellent budget option. I would also recommend Mama Mio products if you feel like splashing out.

Thank you, I'm a size 10 - 12. Would like to shift a few pounds and definitely need to tone up. Poor circulation is interesting, I'd never thought of that!
