How to Get Rid of Cellulite - What Doesn't Work

By Sydney Jaclynn


Everyone likes to see a cute, dimpled smile. What nobody wants to see or have is a dimpled BUTT. Cellulite is infamous for giving us dimples on our thighs, butts, and hips. Yeah, blech.

Well, there are ways to learn how to get rid of cellulite, but what I want to focus on is what doesn't work. All too often we see products advertised that promise to rid us of our cellulite and make us look like the latest Hollywood star! Most of the time, they are fake! Here are some of those things that do not work.

Creams and Lotions - They say that they know how to get rid of cellulite: Just rub this cream on your thighs and watch the cellulite disappear. Which is just false advertising! Sometimes they work, but only for a little while. They temporarily shrink the fatty cells. Before you know it, the cellulite returns like an ex-boyfriend who can't take a hint.

Body Wraps - Another one of those temporary fixes that last a very short while, if that. If anything, body wraps may even do negative things to your health. Switch off the television the next time you see an infomercial about these things.

Electric Muscle Stimulation - Ah, these sound like a dream come true, right? All you have to do is put on this device, switch it on, and sit back down on the couch to watch more television. Keep it up and your cellulite is all gone. Nope, sorry, that's a hoax too.

The real solution isn't so easy. If you really want to learn how to get rid of cellulite, you have to work for it. You eat right, avoid certain foods, and exercise to shrink up those fat cells. That's the only solution of any effectiveness that will reduce cellulite and leave our skin looking smooth.

It's a raw deal, I know. But if we're determined, committed, and are driven to succeed, we'll have what it takes to get rid of those pesky dimples!
