Thanks for contributing your experience to our investigation! Surprisingly, a lot of experts believe cellulite is generally worse in thin women than it is for women who are overweight. Sometimes extra fat makes it more difficult to see cellulite. A lot of women see an increase in cellulite when they lose weight. Doesn't sound like that would happen for you, though, since you didn't have it to begin with. I think you are onto something with the healthy saturated fats and bone broths. They seem to be the most valuable nutrients when it comes to cellulite. Lucky us! So interesting, Brittany. Thanks for contributing your experience to our investigation!

I was a swimmer from age 6 to 19, and when I stopped swimming daily I went from about 170 lbs to 240 ish. I've not seen any cellulite develop even with the weight gain. I attribute this to the fact that I have always loved whole milk, animal fats and fish, and home made bone broths. Although I am not happy with my weight, I know people much skinnier than I am that eat the Standard American Diet, and have major cellulite problems. My best friend in high school was 110 lbs at 5'8 with a vegitarian tendancy and had cellulite from ankle to waist. I think it is definitely a nutrient deficiency of some sort.

Since I hang out a lot in the Real Food blogging world, I was hoping to hear from some real foodies who have had experiences like yours. How exciting! Thanks so much for stopping by. Hopefully I can convince you to share more details in a Cellulite Story. Jenny, I'm so happy to read your comment.

Cellulite is not just part of being a woman. I don't have cellulite, it's not because my cellulite is less visible due to muscle mass or low body fat (I'm not thin). I did have cellulite once but it disappeared when I transitioned to real food and it did so within a matter of a few months. I agree with you, Melissa. Cellulite is not just part of being a woman.

I'm assuming you meant "the more muscle I develop, the <i>less</i> visible my cellulite appears," right? You are right about the creams. They seem to offer fleeting results, at best. But did you read <a href="http://www.celluliteinvestigation.com/2010/02/cellulite-stories-declassified-codename.html" rel="nofollow">the Cellulite Story from yesterday</a>? She had cellulite even when she was a marathon runner with 7 percent body fat, but lost it when she changed her diet for other health reasons. These kind of stories fascinate me! Hi, Karen.

There must be a genetic component as well. I've seen women in fantastic shape at the gym sporting visible cellulite. I've also seen heavier women without a hint of it in sight. <br /><br />I find that the more muscle I develop, the visible my cellulite appears. I'd rather save the money that could be spent on those creams and do some strength training instead. Sadly, I do think that cellulite is a part of life for most women.
