I'm not done yet, I'm now on Level 3 Day 24.


But now I'm getting cellulite :noway: anyone know how to get rid of that? :huh:

moosenbratsmommy

can't help with the cellulite, but congrats on the way your body is shaping up...

CindyCountingCalories

Thank you

I will just google cellulite :laugh:

LilBee82

Can definitely see the changes! Keep it up!!

beccah88

Great results!

The cellulite thing is strange, exercise should help get rid of it not cause you to have it :S
It might be because you're losing fat, that the fat is being broken down or seperated and it might make it look like that. I'm not sure though.

Have you tried body brushing? I use a body brush in a circular motion on my legs and arms before I shower and then put moisturiser on when I get out. I read about this method on another site and it seems to have made mine a little better.

Amazing results, I can definitely see a difference! How much weight have you lost due to 30DS so far?

I'm going to start this program soon. Can't wait!

Congrats!
It's odd, we're like progress twins, I just did my measurements this morning after completing Level 2 and our weight lost and total inches lost was very similar! Lol, thanks for posting

That's awesome, I'm at level 3 day 25. I can definitely tell a difference in your pics and myself too!!

Everything that I have read about cellulite is that it is genetic. There are very thin people with cellulite.

@Purplesaurus that's so funny !

@ Pappabacon thank you for the link!

I read an article about cellulite one time. It said that after doing stuff that is similar to HIIT or is like 30 DS try to do a steady state cardio (jog etc..) for about 15 minutes afterwards to help with the build up of the fats.

I don't think you can actually get rid of cellulite, but you can shrink the size of those fat cells by proper diet. Keep exercising and drinking plenty of water. That should help. The number of you fat cells in indeed genetic, but you determine the size (and appearance) of them. I'm 120 lbs with plenty of cellulite for everyone. :laugh:

You look great I'm doing 30 day shred as well and hope I get good results !!

SithZombie

Dang girly! I'm impressed! Keep it up! I just ordered 30 Day Shred today and I really REALLY can't wait to get started after seeing your progress!

diddyk

Nice work! You can really see results in your bum! I haven't been able to stick to 30DS that long...I always get sidetracked.

shelliedanielle

Thats great! I am doing the 30 day shred as of now. hopefully I will get some good results soon.

Dr. Oz had on one of his shows that vitamin C helps with cellulite. Go to his website and search. The article should be on there. I also have cellulite :grumble: so I started taking vitamin C pills. Also make sure you're drinking plenty of water to help flush out some of the fat. It might not get rid of it, but it will help reduce the appearance. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

OfficialPR

Awesome! Keep up the good work

errickab24

Try the bible butt..

CindyCountingCalories

@ shelliedaniel, diddyk, sithzombie and snookibaby92

Just keep doing it, even if it hurts it's much beter the next day, when I started I took Sundays off but then it hurts much more the following day.

@ sabrinalg, and fakeplastic both are good tips I will try that, Vitamin C makes sense maybe thats why they call it "orange peel skin" :laugh:

@ Beetleche13 LOL! At least you are 120 Lbs that makes up for the cellulite!

@ OfficialPR Thank you I'm planning to keep it up

@ errikab24 Ive just searched the bible butt think I should get it for me :happy: My cellulite are under my arms next to my breasts. But I've heard about 30ds on MFP and it's worth it, think I'll give that one a try also :drinker:

It must be a very intense workout

Unfortunately working out generally does not help cellulite. Cellulite is generally caused from the food you eat. Food your body can't use (artifical, chemically processed, HFCS..etc.) gets stored in your fat cells...thus cellulite. Because of my horribly busy schedule I don't often get time to work out in the winter months...however I have begun eating VERY clean. The worst thing I probably consume is salt and meat. No dairy, no prepackaged foods, no fast foods...fruits, veggies, nuts, oils...and some meat. My cellulite has dramatically decreased. But when I ate worse and would work out tons...I still had it. Just a thought. Try cleaning up your diet and see if you see some changes :-)
Good luck

I read a cosmetic fix for cellulite is to rub coffee grounds on it, kind of like a sugar scrub. Apparently the caffiene helps...

CindyCountingCalories

Thank you for all the replies!

Tomorrow is my last day of the 30 day shred! I can't wait to compare the final results!

I did some research about cellulite and found a lot of information, if interested, you are very welcome to visit my blog:

You're booty looks lifted and stomach your look a lot more toned! Great Job :drinker: This is a huge inspiration for me. I'm only on Day5 Level1. I hope my results are as noticable as yours.
