    Lifting heavy helps. Pretty much got rid of all the cellulite on my butt and thighs. Stretch marks, all they do is fade in my experience but you can still notice them. Doubt creams help lol.

    take this with a grain of salt... i read somewhere and i cant remember where now, that while your puting lotion on if you rub circles over your cellulite it helps break up the fat. i imagine you rub pretty firm, lol not draw light circle over them like some voodoo stuff. now! idk if this is right i have not really tried it consistantly. Im sure it takes time but... doesnt sound like it could hurt anything if you did try it. And if someone does let me know how it works.

    I am still QUITE heavy (hovering at size 16/18) but I've lost 22 pounds so far in my journey, and my cellulite is substantially improved. I'm actually pretty shocked, I figured I'd have to be at my goal weight before I'd see any improvement there, but it's gotten much better already. It is hereditary, even some people I know who are size 2/4/6 have it, but it can definitely be improved upon. I can say though, nothing topical will work lol. I've probably tried every anti-cellulite cream and lotion there is in a drugstore, and none of them did anything.

    As far as stretch marks go, mine seem to have improved as well. They're still there of course, but the strongest ones have gotten lighter and smaller, and some that I got years ago are almost gone. I think stretch marks ARE actually helped by lotions, because in the last five years my skin has gotten incredibly dry (combo of meds/health stuff and swimming so much) so I'm a lotion-a-holic now, and I've noticed major improvements in my stretch marks since.

    I got stretch marks when I gained weight. But I haven't gained in a while now. My body stayed pretty much the same, I even lost a little and I want to lose more. But I still get new stretch marks!! Why? My thighs look awful right now :(

    Sorry for not responding sooner!
    Ive heard rubbing vitamin E oil into the area helps. Also heard of butter creams like shea butter. But then i also heard none of these works lol. I know excersize will help but mine are everywhere: arms . Theighs. Butt. Tummy.

    Thanks for all the suggestions!
