Yikes, my legs have become so cellulitey during pregnancy - I'm so thankful that it is winter! I went to destination maternity and the dressing room was so scary!!! Anyone else have this problem? I tend to get cellulite on my thighs when I gain weight, so I'm not surprised, but hoping to keep it under control. I already use Nivea firming cream. What do you do to treat your cellulite?
-
The gym and a low cal diet is the only thing that works for me. I got a couple dimples and I'm working on toning up again and getting rid of that layer of fat I seem to have.
-
Mine was hardly noticeable ... because they were covered by my stretch marks.
-
@venice4504: I've it the gym part down but low carb diet isn't in my future for the next 5 months!
@artbee: Lol
-
I got dimples when I was pregnant. My legs were SO HUGE! They're usually the thinnest part of my body! When I started losing my pregnancy weight my thighs smoothed out. No more cellulite!
-
I've never been pregnant and I've got a couple dimples on my one of my outer thighs. Too many chili cheese fries and not enough exercise I suppose. Thankfully my hubby still finds me attractive because I really do love chili cheese fries.
-
I haven't noticed any cellulite yet but the acne (especially on my back) is killing me. Never had that before and now I feel like a pubescent teenager.
-
LOL! I use worry to treat my cellulite.
It's not working, but I don't plan on stopping.The funny thing is I have been measuring my butt, high hip, waist and bust since the BFP and my is still THE SAME SIZE but it does NOT look the same. Sad story.
I do go to the gym, but not for my cellulite.
-
@tana_bk: I was prone to cellulite pre-pregnancy, but it wasn't bad, just a little on the top back of my legs. Ugh, now it's everywhere!!
-
@pastemoo: I haven't been measuring anything but my underwear size tells me that my butt is growing, too : /
-
@chopsuey119: This is very reassuring.
-
@winniebee: really? but you've hardly gained... I've gained almost 15 pounds now!
Does cellulite only occur on the bottom half? I've only gotten it on my legs/butt, but I swear at the rate my boobs are growing they are about to become very funny looking. -
@pastemoo: Yep. I have gained 7 lbs total....mostly in tummy and thankfully not in my face....but definitely some in my butt and legs. That said, I've been on a food bender for the last 10 days and and committed to stopping all the indulging....on Tuesday ; )
-
@winniebee: Tuesday sounds good to me!
are there PMs on hellobee? -
@pastemoo: Not yet : (
-
Yup, here too.
My bum and thighs are where my fat goes and in pregnancy it def got worse. But it's normal and mine went away after pregnancy (or at least back to what it was). -
Seriously, I have gotten the worst cellulite since I have been pregnant. I have gained the most weight in my thighs, butt, and hips (More than my stomach) and the cellulite is horrendous.
I used to have it just a little bit in the back of my thighs, but now it is everywhere. I have not used anything to treat it...but I have been using Mustela stretch mark cream all over my body. -
oh god, my thighs. they have gained oh-so-much weight. I think that other than the baby & boobs, all of my gain has gone towards my thighs & nose. and yes, due to the gain I have also noticed a lovely uptick in cellulite, which I've never had a problem with before. I've been walking my dog more & hoping that once the baby is here my thighs will revert to something more like their pre-pregnancy size.
