Ok so call me weird but I keep looking at my bum in the bathroom mirror when I get changed lol...Only 10kgs lost BUT there is a huge, not just a little huge but a massive huge kinda difference in the cellulite that I have. I kinda wish I had a bum/thigh pic from before cause it was horrid...but now my bum and thighs are so much smoother and way less dimpled! Has anyone else noticed a huge difference?

So far Ive lost 10 kgs and am only using my treadmill for exercise so I'm wondering if the treadmill is the reason it's going? Not complaining! I look at my bum and legs now and think yes they are fat but they are starting to look good...just imagine HOW good they will look when I get to goal!

    Wow! That's great! Keep it up!

    I've noticed it both ways: After I had my baby (I gained almost 60lbs while pregnant) I had cellulite all the way down to my calves. Ewwww. But as I got into better shape it slowly disappeared upward.

    Now the problem is I'm losing more weight and developing nice leg muscles, but seems to me that even though I can see nice muscle lines when I'm working out (or when I buy race photos of myself) but when I'm still the cellulite seems to be even MORE noticeable!! I hope it's just a passing phase.

    This is the kind of thing I love to hear! as my thigh cellulite is pretty terrible and can't wait til I lose some of it. I read that as your fat cells shrink as you lose weight, your cellulite shrinks along with itl :)

    I really hope so. We do Paranormal Investigations and use IR cameras and at our last overnighter my bum was forever caught on camera and I was horrified! You could see the dimples thru the fabric no thanks to IR. My hubby wants to try and re-create the photo!
