:blushing: this is very embarrassing but Im just too happy not to share.
Im talking about CELLULITE
gross I know sorry:blushing:

I stuggled many many years with it, never able to wear shorts or short dresses/skirts
my cellulite was bad very very bad, my thighs and buttocks were pot hole city (gross i know)
cant describe any other way..it would show through leggings .
It was getting worse as I was getting older I guess it was all the way down close to my knees.
So today I went to the room with the most sunlight coming in and took some pics, now im sad i dont have befores, I never thought I would fix that...I was blaming genetics and all that stuff...I was saving up for laser treatments:laugh:

The power of Running is incredible!! 6 months 5-6x a week 30min-1hr
Cellulite gone..muscle in!!:happy:

sorry pics are huge and got cut :(

    Awesome!! So happy for you :flowerforyou: I'm working on this as well. Hope I have the success you had. I'm running also and after 3 months I see a difference in me, but you have given me hope that I can get the rest of it off. Thanks for sharing!

    Fortunately never suffered, just want rid of the belly... Running 5-6 times a week is helping there.

    Awesome! Cellulite is the worst. Even though everyone has at least a little bit, it's still so annoying and hard to get rid of. Hopefully I'll be able to run mine off too!

    What a fantastic feeling, eh? Great stuff!

    My legs are full of cellulite right now and I wouldn't be wearing shorts or skirts right now either.
    Years ago, in my mid 20s, I got rid of it by cycling everywhere ... to work, for recreation, for errands.
    I plan on doing this again as soon as I decide which new bike will come home with me.

    Great job!

    I hate running, but I used to do it a lot... I guess I never really thought about but I don't think I had much when I was running, but now I have a LOT! YUCK!!!

    Maybe I need to get back into it.

    Wow wow wow...this is more inspirational to me that any other before and after pics. I only have ten more pounds to go (I lost nine so far) but my legs still have alot of cellulite...but I can tell it is much better since I have been doing the C25K and Shred. I want your legs sister! And I will (I hope)!
