Tons of cellulite in thighs. Anyone successful in losing any?

NoExcusesFromNowOn

What's the best way? I do need to lose weight.

Mine improved massively when I quit smoking and increased my water intake. And walking a fair bit

Lose the weight, then evaluate. Mine improved with weight loss. Exercise is useful for a lot if reasons, but may or may not have an effect on the appearance of fat stores. Sadly, some of this can be genetics . . . but you really know where you stand until you've been at goal weight for as while (appearance can still change a bit in the first months of maintenance, and continuing progressively challenging exercise will continue to cause appearance changes indefinitely).


ETA: Be aware that appearance can temporarily be a little worse midway through weight loss, but don't let that get you down: It will improve again!

I just want to know if you're really Adam Lambert.

90% of my cellulite went away as I lost weight. I still have a little on the backs of my thighs. I only have a few more pounds to lose, so I imagine that is there to stay.

Lowering my bodyfat, weight training and building muscle helped.. but I still have it. Genetics.. yay

I'm focusing on losing weight and doing more leg exercises like the dreaded squats and lunges.
I'm an Adam lover, not him.

Losing weight improved mine. Still have a ton. My hopes are that as I lose more and then recomp it will reduce. I have zero hopes of it disappearing as I'm in my lower half of healthy bmi already.

Cellulite is just fat with connective tissue creating a dimpling effect on the skin. Prevalence is genetic. The only way to get rid of it is to reduce the fat under the skin. You do that by eating at a deficit and doing resistance training.
