AIBU to think I'm stuck with this bloody cellulite?

Just caught a glimpse of my thighs in the mirror and nearly had a heart attack - they've always been a little on the dimply side but my cellulite has got so much worse.
I exercise, I have a balanced diet - but obviously I don't do enough or eat clean enough....I moisturise but don't use any particular products for cellulite - have I just got to give up and grin and bear it?
Has anyone had any success with products and if so please share your secrets!

Body brushing? I've heard that improves the circulation.

Slice of lemon in hot water like a tea every morning

It has never failed for me! I can't be arsed mostly now at 39 but I do sometimes and it clears it up

No idea why

I wouldn't bother with products. Body brushing in long movements going clockwise (I think?) And drinking lots of water will help some but really it has a lot to do with genetics so to a certain extent you need to suck it up (and stop looking!)

I spent my 20's constantly in a gym btw was very thin and still had it until I started drinking lemon in hot water

Or give penguins suggestion a go (as shall I)

It worked for me :)

Now I just can't be arsed and DP doesn't have great vision without his glasses ;)

I do it before a holiday Grin

This works but it's bloody painful....

What bradley says. Been using since June...not religiously, but will now consider shorts this summer:-) check out her instagram- lots of before and afters. Some people get better results than others.

wow that looks like a torture device bradley and name but I would seriously try anything and the results do look good!

I've learnt to live in peace with mine. Fuck it, who cares? Not me!

Low carb high fat diet. Mine disappeared. It was incredible to watch. I've had cellulite since my teens when I was really slim.

Yy to body brushing! I always notice an improvement if I do it regularly

whyistherumgone · 13/12/2016 11:32

interesting! Is there a particular kind of body brush you use?

I have done low carb high fat before but didn't get on with it - maybe I should give it another go!
