Cellulite, does it look worse to you?

[JulieMom]

So I have cellulite, hate it!!! I wouldn't wear shorts for about 5 years because of it. Since I have worked out the last almost 2 years last summer I decided to wear shorts for myself. Now me, I look at my legs and see to toned areas but balk at the inner thighs as they bumpity bump bump bump on down. It's much better but still there. Now do you think me looking straight down my leg that I can see it more than other people seeing me next to them? Guess I am just hoping only I can see how bad it really is.

We are our worst critics of our bodies. Be proud of your accomplishments and quit looking at your flaws. I quit that a couple years ago and I am much happier because of it. I know what I have accomplished and so do you. Remember that, when you see a few bumps on your legs!

Ugh cellulite! It sucksx( ! You can work out, eat healthy, Silhouette, Endermologie, massage therapy...even get liposuction (I was considering it but heard it doesn't do anything for cellulite) and you can see improvements but still there's no cure. Most women have it, some more than others, and it gets worse with age. I guess we are the ones that keep thinking about the imperfections in our bodies. You think people will think oh she has cellulite omg I won't even talk to her I might get it too?! LOL! We all have it (most of us anyway). What do you care about what people think anyway? Keep wearing your shorts, use a self tanner, follow with a shimmering moisturizing lotion and if there are spots that really bother you don't go really short go short enough. And never get so depressed you think you should stop exercising or eating healthy because you don't have that *perfect* cellulite free body you thought you'd get. Smile honey you're looking good in those shorts

We women have a tendancy to just notice our flaws.

We don't like our legs because of the CELLULITE and don't consider the other side "They are healthy, they work, they let me walk". Ask any amputee what they'd prefer.

Also, if we look at our bodies, we are a lot closer than the average person we meet. Most of them see us from 5 ft. away and the cellulite doesn't look that bad then. And the guy who looks at us naked, cellulite is the last thing on their mind.

We women should be a lot less conserned about little things like appearance - health is what counts in the end.

So funny! I know you are right about that! Yeah I am very proud of what I have accomplished for myself and am very healthy. It's hard though being 24 and seeing all the young gals my age without a tid bit of cellulite. My worst bumps unfortunely are on the lower part of my inner thigh so I might as well only wear capris to cover it. I refuse to fry this summer so shorts it is. I live in St. Louis and today it is high of 90!!! Looks like I have a very hot summer coming my way.

My DH once told me that I was lucky to be one of those women who didn't get cellulite. Guess what!!!! I *DO* get cellulite on the backs of my thighs/hams and butt when I gain some weight! He just doesn't notice it. :*

Really, WE see all our flaws...or the things we perceive as flaws...moreso than others.

Wear those shorts!

And don't let the "perfect" models legs make you feel worse. Many have cellulite also and it gets removed via computer programs before the pitcures get printed.
