Cellulite or fat

[mintesa]

Im confused about cellulite and fat. I have little belly, very little, could i apply cellulite creams on it? or is this fat and they wont work? Or is cellulite only those dimple things?

thank you ladies.

I have cellulite on my thighs... Depending on how I sit (mostly when I cross my legs) you can see "ripples" along my upper thigh. This is assuming it's noticed since I try to not let it be visible *lol*

I would assume if it's on your stomach it's probably a wee bit of fat that you'll probably lose with Judo

Then again, I'm not 100% positive, and maybe someone else will have better info for you.

Cellulite only describes the "appearance". It is named for the dimply texture on the skin resulting from the way the adipose (fat) cells are stored. Alot of times it is seen on the buttock, and thighs of women because of the weaker network of collagen (the fat pokes through the weak spots, like dough would in a straw basket).

Those cellulite creams only work to thicken the skin so that the lumps are less apparent. It is like throwing a thicker blanket over stones...you will not see as many lumps.

If it is a simple layer of fat on your tummy that you are talking about, then it is pobably not cellulite, I am guessing your belly is quite smooth. I have never seen anybody with cellulite on the tummy area before, so I would think it highly unlikely on you.

oh, i guess i will have to good going to judo so it will melt my fat on the stomach. it was actually a one year plan, since last year, to exercise a lot, to get rid of my little tummy. but its still there, its not that a big deal, i guess i eat too much ice-cream

but my arms did get toned a lot though, maybe i need to focus on stomach exercises more...

thanx for the infos ladies.
