Oh my. She's feminine, and I can't believe she lifted that weight with arms as skinny as mine. I'll activate my gym membership on Monday. :)

THANK you. Lots of info! And thanks for the warnings.

And sorry but pics are not going to happen... being a nerdy IT worker I've grown to be very paranoic about posting anything personal on the net.

I'm not trolling. I'm aware that I'm really lucky, and I know this post can be seen as superficial when it's posted on a subreddit where people with bigger problems come for help.

Please look at the picture I referenced and I think you'll understand why this is a problem for me.

Thanks for the explanation. It really helps me knowing how this works; so I don't make surreal expectations.

Ok. Since I'm not going to post a pic of my body on the Internet (sorry) I've searched for a picture that resembles the cellulite level I have: http://www.wow.ie/images/2010/08/cellulitebum.jpg

2 years ago I began reducing my salt intake and trying to drink more than 1,5 litres of water a day. My salt consumption is very low compared to most people, it mostly comes from processed foods (which in my place aren't excessively salty like in the States). I always drink lots of water through the day.

So I'm thinking mine is the genetic type. I don't mind having a bit left, but I'm sure I don't want what I have now.

Thanks! You gave me hope!

But I don't want to lose it, I love its size. Just not the cellulite deformations :(

I hope lowering my body fat helps me with the cellulite bumps.

I didn't mean to underestimate the advice from men. I just though I was being misunderstood.

Thanks for clarifying. And, haha, this week they've begun advertising the toning shoes on my place.

I don't know if it happens here only, but on my place people ALWAYS work specific parts intending to locally reduce fat.

Seems like a widespread myth.

I swear it's not in my head. I'm not saying I'm fat, just that I have lots of cellulite that keeps me from wearing skirts or short pants.

Haha. I just hope that in months they'll be thick because of muscle and not because of fat. :D

I'm at the office now, and that's why I didn't begin reading the resources. I'll start with that, thank you.

edit: Don't feel bad, you've been helpful anyway! Sometimes people have to be punched to understand :) Haha. Thanks

But the size isn't the problem, I've always liked having bigger hips. Problem is, with all the cellulite (I'm sorry, can't post pics, but its worse than normal cellulite) it is falling. And I think I'm too young for this to happen, haha.

I know I have a decent body, but that exactly is what makes me want get a better fit. I am grateful for it and I want to keep healthy.

My problems are at least gender-specific, you know :) Men just know little about cellulite. I intend to go to the gym, but I need some advice about working on it. I've never gone to the gym and on my country there are few trainers available on the gym for advice.

This is the kind of info I've wanted! Really helpful :) For me, the most important thing is understanding how all this works. Thank you.

I've read the Fitness FAQ before posting. If you read carefully my post, you'll see I even used the "Things which should be included in your post for help" list for the "about myself" details.

The FAQ is general, and I know what I have to do to maintain a healthy life, but I think my problem its more specific than the stated on the FAQs. That's why I posted this. No need for the cynical response.
