  • The only place I have it is my thighs. Which I can discreetly hide, lol! Hoping that's where it stays!!
  • This is a stupid question, but what does cellulite look like? I don't know if I have it. I have some stretch marks on my thighs for sure, but that's not the same thing, right?

  • If you clicked no, I hate you.

    Also? M has cellulite on her butt when I hold her before her bath. It's frickin' adorable. LMAO

    ETA: Everyone has cellulite, it's just a matter of if they have enough fat/not enough muscle tone to let it show. It's from your skin being held to the fascia.

    It looks like someone pressed fingerprints into dough... only less dramatic. If you squeeze your glutes as tight as you can, most people can create little dimples on their rear. That's cellulite.

  • Why is it that hugely fat men have no cellulite? I know women who have never been overweight and have always exercised who have it. There must be a hormone component.

    seriously!! I mean, I'm overweight now, but even when i was a lot smaller and healthier and worked out almost every night, I still had some :'(

    Actually, it doesn't even necessarily have to do with quantity of fat or muscle tone. I started having some around puberty and I was super skinny with a crazy high metablism and in really great toned shape from dancing and walking EVERYWHERE.Ugh, my mother was "concerned" about my "weight problem" when I was turning 12/13 because I started having it. Yeah...12/13, smack in the middle of puberty and still only weighing 109 lbs at 5'4"...I hardly doubt I had a "weight problem" in terms of being heavy. /rant

     The fascia is what holds your body together and attaches your skin to your subcutaneous fat and the fat to the muscle. It usually shows up on the thighs and rear end. The fascia in that area is more likely to be in a cross-hatch pattern. The little dimples are from the gaps in that cross-hatch. It can be exacerbated by the muscle tone and amount of fat, but that alone isn't the cause. I've had really tight fascia forever so I've had little dimples on my tushie and upper thighs. They just got worse as I aged and and gained some more weight.

    I've already become convinced EIP isn't quite human anyway ;P
