I drink lots of water and exercise. I weigh 112 and I am 5'5'', but I still have cellulite all over the back of my thighs. Since I am thin, my friends can't understand why i don't like to wear a bathing suit. Where did you get your info from? I have been thinking about starting yoga, but I don't have an interest in doing the whole foods diet yet--it seems that it takes up too much time and I really enjoy going out to eat with my friends. Thanks

For myself, i found that the rebounder really helps and getting off wheat really tuned it around and yoga is certainly what i am into these days that assist in this area; Eating out is not a very sucessful way, so much carbs and fats in foods ect,unless you can eat a lot of veggies and less heavy grains and meats and dairy-it is hard to turn around; The more veggies and fruits and exercise and vegetable juices the better-working out in a gym is another great suggestion to firm the legs up;

I've always been slim, but still had the cellulite thing on thighs and hips. I started yoga about 10 yrs ago, and along with that began to gradually improve my diet. I was amazed to find the cellulite gone after a year or two...not sure exactly how long it took. And this practice helps all the inner organs, too, to cleanse and be healthy and strong. I'm in my 50s now, and my legs look better than they did when I was younger--smooth thighs, no fat around the knees, etc. Good health to you!

If you don't mind, could you tell me what yyou eat in an average day that you consider "improving your diet" I eat low fat, butI don't think that qualifies as whole foods. Thanks alot!

I have come to learn that cellulite is not about firming your legs up. I have been doing taebo for about a year and my legs are very firm, but much to my disapppoint I STILL have cellulite on the back of my legs. It is genetic and I have heard taht nothing gets rid of it ecxept those expensive endermologie sessions.

I stopped eating fast food, and any packaged foods with hydrogenated vegetable oils in them. (I think "bad" fats may be a big contributor to cellulite.) A low-fat diet is not necessarily healthy. Good fats, like olive oil and flaxseed oil are essential.
I was a vegetarian, not doing very well, when I stumbled upon the Blood Type diet of Dr. D'Adamo. I am a type O, and found that O's need animal protein, so I went back to eating meat--organic only, except for the occasional restaurant meal. And it's worked well for me. I eat meat, fish, and lots of veggies, with some fruit, very little cereal or bread. Almost no dairy, except a bit of cheese now and then. Meals often consist of fresh salad greens with a good helping of meat or fish (canned tuna is handy) on top. Simple, quick, and satifsying. Yes, I guess it's pretty much a whole-foods diet, except I don't eat the whole cow, chicken, or fish!

We have seen many things working with people at the healing ranch in Texas and working out of homes around the world and anything can happen; I'm of the philosophy that if we argue for our limitations there are's, [miricles also happen]i have expierenced and seen it turn around first hand. Everyone is different i realize. First hand i have seen one lady turn bad cellulite around [still has a little though, not much]with getting colonic's and making some changes in her food plan;

Hi, Meredith.
The only thing I know of that is effective is TOTAL elimination of dairy products for 6-12 months. Once it is gone you know how you got it and what to do to prevent its returning.
Let us know how you do.

Has this been proven to work becuase I honestly don't think I can eliminate dairy from my diet for that long. You also wrote that you will archive this, but I don't see any archives on cellulite.
In Reply to: Re: cellulite (Archive) posted by meredith on January 26, 2001 at 15:09:22:
why can't you eliminate dairy that long? cow's milk is actually bad for you, do a search on this...
In Reply to: Re: cellulite (Archive) posted by why not? on January 27, 2001 at 00:19:42:
so I'm supposed to eliminate cheese, butter milk and every single product on the market that has any dairy in it--than I can end up woith osteoporosis. Lets see how my cellulite likes that!!

Hi meredith, that dairy products prevent osteoporosis is a myth perpetuated by the dairy industry. Do a search on this site regarding "milk" and see what you come up with. The calcium/phosphorus ratio in cow's milk is opposite of that in human milk - therefore consuming dairy products can actually steal calcium from your body. I was amazed when I learned this and did not believe it but now I do. Countries that consume no dairy never have osteoporosis!

I, personally, wouldn't give much credit to ER4YB diet. D'amo says that each blood type developed as humans migrated and moved around the glove. It has since been shown that all 4 blood types existed simotaneously. This would negate a lot of what he says. Secondly, I have seen many type O's do well on vegetarian while others did very poorly. I believe this is bad science for picking a diet. Glad to hear that you added back some animal protein though. Most people definitely need some. :)

Hi, Meredith.
New archives are created 2 months after there is proven a need for them. Too bad about your addiction to dairy since that is the only thing I have seen that will work. If you find another solution, I hope you will let us know.
Even a year of TOTAL elimination of dairy might not TOTALLY eliminate the cellulite. Since this has something to do with immunity any slip will set the person back to ground zero. I have seen it take 2 years. To prevent recurrence, one has to do this for the rest of their lives although, the longer they have done it the longer it takes to recur.
Remember, if this is your cause, it took at least 20 years of dairy to bother you.
However, there would be enough results in 6 months to convince anyone that it was working.

Meredith,
Dairy products are the worst source of calcium in our diet!!! Actually, the more dairy you get the less calcium you keep!
Do your homework about milk and THEN let us know what you have learned. I think this 'site has an archive about dairy and "why not" has offered you another resource.

Listen to DR.STOLL, He always has research to back what he says;
Here is a good product for your worries;
Bone Support with Ostivone is more effective than calcium alone. Helps to maintain strong healthy bones and increases bone density.
Bone loss. It occurs without warning. That's why it is important to alert you to this incredible breakthrough in bone nutrition: Twinlab Bone Support with Ostivone. Simply the most advanced nutritional supplement ever formulated to maintain optimal bone health. Until now, supplements for bone health focused on calcium and Vitamin D. But a recent scientific advance has given us an incredible new discovery called Ipriflavone. Studies indicate Ipriflavone (the main ingredients in Ostivone) helps slow the rate of bone loss, stimulates good bone cell structure and enhances calcium absorption. In other words, Ipriflavone doesn't just protect against bone loss. It may help increase bone density! Twinlab Bone Support builds on this breakthrough by providing 600 mg of Ipriflavone per serving, as well as 1500 mg of Calcium plus Vitamin D, Magnesium, Boron and Novasoy Purified Soy Phytoestrogen Extract.

It can't be b/c I am only 21 and I hae had this for 7 yrs.
In Reply to: Re: cellulite (Archive) posted by meredith on January 30, 2001 at 01:24:20:
Meredith,
You must know that the 20 years is only an average. Genetically susceptible people might have it happen in 10 years and genetically resistant people never.
Do you have a better solution?
Let us know.
Walt
