    Still rocking white streaks on my thighs from yo-yo-ing during childhood-early teenage years (obese-normal BMI-underweight back and forth several times). Even after a good 15 years of having a fairly stable bodyweight (between 21-23). Paler I get, the slightly less noticeable, but nonetheless still there upon close examination (embracing, not bothered by)

    you know the more I think about it the more I think thats why I have all this cellulite and laxity in my skin...i went back and forth so many times being big,then small,then muscular then just all fat cause I had to stop gym due to injury:((...and maybe skin just changed texture or something:(((

    It's largely genetic. I've known women who have improved it with weight loss and weight training, but never fully gotten rid of it. My best chick friend is a professional trainer and hardcore cyclist...she is very lean with visible abs and very fit. She still has cellulite, but she's a beautiful woman.

    I have never been overweight, but have had cellulite since puberty. My sis made fun of me for having it and I've always struggled with hating it.

    I'm trying to learn to how to accept, but even at 45 I don't much like it.

    My body fat is 24.4%. I have visible abs.

    And lots of cellulite.

    Once, when I was under 20%, it was better, but still there.

    Fact is... Some women have a bit, and can lose it. Some women have a lot and will never get rid of it. And for most of us... There's nothing we can do about it.

    The more muscle I have, the more cellulite I see. I figure the muscle presses against the skin, and whatever fat I have breaks through the fibres of the skin.

    I guess I'm rambling... But long story short... It is totally normal, and largely out of our control.

    I have some on my legs which looks worse in bad lighting.

    It has reduced a lot from when I was 30% BF to now (~22% BF i'm guesstimating). At my leanest of about 18% BF I still had some, but less visible.

    So yeah, I think the more muscle less fat you have the less it shows.

    I do, however, hold hopes that there is a miracle out there and I take DIM tablets to magically help me get rid of them (still there tho).

    I have in the past had massages and some fat freezing treatment thing done and also one time some other machine thing that kind of kneaded the fat (it was cheap, so hey!). With these "treatments" I found the visible appearance reduced, but as soon as I stopped, it came back.

    The other thing is, when I have done things like that I was being more consistent with diet and therefore it could just have been the diet rather than the machines. Or maybe a miraculous combination of both.

    I haven't tried any creams tho.

    yeah...I have dome velashape...creams....coffee scrubs/////you name it...dry brushing/////my body fat is kinda high at 29 but again people with lot higher fat dont have cellulite......:(

    Hun, those people don't have a secret, cuddle unicorns or anything else. They simply don't have your genes, your connective tissue. Stop looking at others, start embracing your body. You are you, not someone else.
