Help! I never, ever, thought skinny people got,,,,,?

Question

cellulite! I weigh all of 110 pounds, on a good day! And was shocked to see I had little dimples or whatever on my upper thighs and butt. I asked some girlfriends if they knew what it was and they laughed and told me it was just cellulite. How can somebody so skinny get it? And how do I get rid of it, before I get more? It makes me feel creepy! Yuk! Do I spend too much time sitting at a desk all day, or what? Am I eating something wrong? I don't do junk food really. And thanks for any info!

HEY! You people are great! Thanks. I'm learning alot! I bought that cream garbage that was supposed to firm it up, but it didn't work, and it was EXPENSIVE!. But I'm going to try the exercises suggested. Thanks again everybody!

AMY - I keep trying to email you but I keep getting Oops, there's a problem, or this person email address has not been confirmed. I don't understand. You need to get her to a doctor that is foreign, and by that I mean who can speak another language or has studied abroad. And preferably a female.

Answer 1

ok, im sorry to say, but i think im skinnier than you because i weigh less and i have that too in the same spots. im in cross country and i think its supposed to tone your legs, but it hasnt gone away on me, so no i dont think u have been sitting at a desk all day too much. and i hardly eat junk food too, so it beats me why i have it. wat im trying and suggest is work out your upper thigh and butt.

a really easy way to do, even while you watch tv or read a magazine is to lay on your stomach and lift one of your legs high into the air, and keep it like that for a while. then trade.

try doing this often, and let me no if it works.

If your mom is still around, check her thighs...you'll probably see your answer before you, unfortunately. It's usually genetic, and it really doesn't matter if you're thin or fat. I'm chunky and I've got it...didn't until in my late 30's. My sis is skinny, and sh'es got it.

It's awful, I know, but YOU ARE MORE THAN YOUR DIMPLES! I'd suggest a lot of walking...I just about eliminated mine for awhile this way, along with drinking tons of water.

Also, a great cover-up is a tan. I used to use tanning beds all the time and you couldn't see it at all. This was during the time I was walking, too. However, we all know that tanning beds are just going to trash your skin further...you may not see it now, but you will later!

So, I'd recommend a GOOD artificial tanner. It doesn't have to be expensive to be goood. I've used Banana Boat Dark Tanning lotion with GREAT results. You can get it at Walmart for about 7 bucks or so. Here's the trick though. Get a pair of rubber or latex gloves, and put them on FIRST. Then, rub, rub and rub some more until you get that lotion into every nook and cranny. It will keep it from looking streaky. Use "sparingly" on rough spots such as elbows and toes/knuckles. I'd put a little on, then wipe it right off with a washcloth or tissue.

Good luck hon! You're such a GREAT answerer on here, so I hope my answer helps you!

Answer 3

Hon, I am 90 pounds and I have "cellulite". Not alot, but I have it. Just because you are skinny, doesnt mean that you dont have fat. Cellulite is basically bad fat that forms together & creates a "dimpled" look usually in your thighs/butt.

Websters defintion:
deposits of subcutaneous fat within fibrous connective tissue (as in the thighs, hips, and buttocks) that give puckering and dimpling appearance to the skin surface

Dictionary.com's defintion:
A fatty deposit causing a dimpled or uneven appearance, as around the thighs and buttocks


You should get out there and exersice more. (I should really take my own advice...)

Answer 4

while you're no longer fat and you do no longer could lose wieght for wellness motives, why are you so desperate to lose a good number of weight. If it relatively is approximately self image and you do no longer basically like the way you seem.. I comprehend, besides the undeniable fact which you desire to to start engaged on accepting your self for who you're. Your bf loves you the way you're:) confirm you're no longer dropping your energy too low or you are able to wreck your metabolism. 5-6 small nutrition an afternoon and many water are the suitable nutrition habitual for me (with low/medium carbs intake). you're transforming into hit plateau. exchange up your nutrition habitual a splash bit. Have a million-2 days OFF your nutrition habitual each and each week (it is stable for restarting your metabolism). flow to a competent eating place and get a intense-high quality juicy steak with mashed potatoes:). you additionally can exchange up your exercising consultation habitual. aerobic is stable yet you do no longer could do it greater beneficial than 3-4 cases each and every week. sign up for a gymnasium and carry out a little weightlifting or kickboxing. stable success!

Answer 5

Don't worry about it I'm 95 lbs. and have some cellulite or whatever. And my legs are really toned too from track, dance, and cross country so don't worry about it. I think everyone has it somewhat.

Answer 6

You just got to exercise and rub some expensive anti-cellulite lotion on it to firm up the area. At least that's what I do. (=

Answer 7

it doesn't matter how skinny you are if you have just a little bit of fat on you, you can get cellulite. it just has to do with the fat tissue under the skin, just use a good moisturizer daily and it will minimize it.

Answer 8

cellulite can happen to ne one. it just means that the circulation in the fat (yes there actually is fat, no matter how skinny u r) isnt good. i recommend trying a lotion or cream with caffine in it to boost circualtion
