I was noticing the other day, I have bad cellulite in my thighs, which is slowly starting to shed but when I was critiquing myself in the mirror, I turned to look at my back side and I have dimples in my BUTT. like really?! is it that bad?! I'll have to make sure not to wear those same pants again because people are going to notice and be totally grossed out :( Does anyone else notice this on themselves? I mean I don't mind the thighs but cellulite on my butt is NOT acceptable!

    I saw an ad on tv recently for a new cellulite lotion by Nivea-I'm going to try it and see if it works!

    Maybe some lunges can help build up your butt muscles to smooth it out....I've always been large bottomed even at 127lbs. My hips/butt range from 39-42 inches (40 for now since I've lost some more weight) but I run and do lunges so you cant even see the fat on my butt because the muscle is so defined and smooths them. I have some on my thighs but they're disappearing the more Ive been running

    I've heard that it has nothing to do with the lotion you use, but just the fact that you use lotion. Something about the rubbing motion of when you apply the lotion massages those pockets of fat (cellulite) and decreases them over time. I feel your pain! No white pants for me!

    I used Jergen's Skin Firming lotion when I was a teen and was losing weight. It seemed to help "firm" up my skin and make my skin smoother over time. Of course, I gained the weight back and hence why I'm here but I'm using the same lotion again, hopefully it works again this time! St. Ive's also has a cellulite lotion that has good reviews, and it smells great! Very citrusy!
