Thanks for all the positive feedback! I'm just happy to be able to help other people figure this thing out, and I'm proud of <em>you</em> for following through with it! Fluoroderma is a complex condition to deal with, even if you've read <a href="http://www.celluliteinvestigation.com/fluoride-acne" title="Everything You Need to Know About Acne and Fluoride, also known as Fluoroderma" rel="nofollow">the e-book</a>. :) Emily, you are so sweet.

Thank you for sharing!! I am familiar with Kimberly's book after I saw it at the book store one day. It almost inspired me to buy a juicer but I was overwhelmed with the selection and never figured out which one to buy. Then the holidays came and I forgot all about it. So glad you brought it up again! I've got so many questions for you, but I'll limit it to a few. What was your diet like before you went raw? When you say you read the books on my website, are you referring to the books about cellulite or the ones about diet or both? Also, what do you eat now? Are you into juicing? Okay, I hope that's not too many questions. :) I just added a forum to the website where you can post pictures, so feel free to head over there to continue the conversation. Here is the thread I created the chat about raw food: <a href="http://www.celluliteinvestigation.com/forum/food/is-a-raw-vegan-diet-good-or-bad-for-cellulite/" rel="nofollow">Is a raw vegan diet good or bad for cellulite?</a> Julia, this is so frickin cool!!

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 23:31:46 +0000 http://www.celluliteinvestigation.com#comment-9944 Melissa - I've been a lurker on your website for a long time and I must say it's very informative; thank you. I'm 44 years old, 5'6 and weigh 128 lbs. I've struggled with cellulite since I was in my 20's. I have tried: Endermology, AccentXL, CelluPulse, Zerona and I bought a WellBox. All with VERY little positive outcome especially considering the $ spent. I've read most of the recommended books you have on your website; also with no significant result. This past August I decided that I would undergo liposuction surgery (figuring at least I could look good IN my clothes). I was told by the surgeon that my cellulite would more than likley get worse - I knew this but hey I wasn't wearing shorts or skirts anyway - so why not? While recovering from surgery I started reading a book called The Beauty Detox by Kimberly Snyder (terrible name for this book - if you read it you'll understand why) anyway Kimberly ultimately advocates a lifestyle of a Raw Food Vegan. The book really moved me and I decided I had nothing to loose; I went for it... in fact, I went much farther past her program and I am enjoying a 90% raw food lifestyle, no meat of any kind,no dairy products, no sugar, no caffeine (that was HARD) and no added salts (I was a salt freak). As of today I am 95% cellulite free!!!! This lifestyle has literally changed my relationship with food for the better as well as curing 95% of my cellulite. I must also note that I haven't really been exercising much; maybe once a week. I plan on changing this next week by running and adding yoga. I am sure that the remaining small (and I have to hunt for it) amount of cellulite will vanish once I stay on a consistent exercise program. I don't use any lotions nor do I use my WellBox. I am a testament to the very simple notion "you are what you eat." Looking back I wish I had know this lifestyle was an option, however if I'm going to be honest with myself I wasn't ready for this type of change. My surgeon was literally shocked by 3 month check-up he told me he's never seen anything like it. I am not advocating surgery in fact had I know the results of my lifestyle change I wouldn't have done it. I go back to my surgeon in Feb. for a six month check and I will ask for the before and after pictures - I'd love to share with everyone... there is hope! If you can send me your email address I will forward them on to you to post if you wish. Thank you for all the valuable research; I love your website!!

What kind of fat are you eating? We are learning that a lot of fats are actually good for cellulite (such as coconut oil, organic butter, full fat yogurt, etc.). Trans fats are a different story. Hydrogenated fats are awful for your lymphatic system. Cellulite forms when the lymphatic system (one of the body's "garbage disposal system" for the cells) becomes congested. It could be caused by something in your diet that your body is having trouble processing, such as a gluten allergy, or an overdose of sugar, etc. I had no idea I was so sensitive to fluoride until I started investigating cellulite. Who would have thought! Do you know if you live in a fluoridated neighborhood? Fluoride is another chemical that can be hard on the lymph.

So glad you found the site. We haven't had any positive reports about anti cellulite shorts yet, although that doesn't mean none of them work at all. I'm still holding out hope! I received a tip to look into Zaggora hot pants, but I haven't heard back from the company yet. If you do try these babies, please let us know how it goes! Hi, Diane! So glad you found the site.

I've been wanting to come back and read more about all sorts of stuff, because not only is cellulite a hot topic with me, but I've had acne all my life and have tried to avoid fluoride for over 10 years after reading about all the problems it causes. I haven't had time to come back till now, but the reason I'm here today was to see what you might know about neoprene shorts/pants that claim to reduce cellulite. I see a few mentions of slimming pants, but nothing specific about neoprene. I was wondering if they would be worth a try when I got this ad today: http://www.savemore.com/DailyDeals/National/5378/Neoprene_Slimming_Pants_71_Value/ (and if the link expires, it's this product: http://www.livethin.net/products/neoprene-slimming-pants.html ). Googling brought me to this interesting piece: http://www.lipocontour.co.uk/press.htm and I'm sure there are tons more like it, but I was REALLY interested in your take on all this. I saw that earlier this year you were looking for volunteers for similar products, but overall it seems this option is yet to be investigated. Maybe I'll have to try the deal and let you know. =) Hi Melissa -

Someone who actually talks sense when it comes to cellulite! I've had pretty bad cellulite for about 8 years and just recently started changing my diet for good (thanks to having a baby and wanting to be in the best health possible for my little one). I feel confident now that as I continue on my journey to health and fitness that my cellulite will subside with time. Great site, well done! I’m so glad I found your site.
