Everyone loves dimples! They’re so cute. But you want them on the cheeks on YOUR FACE, not your butt. The lumpy, dimpled texture that gathers on our hips, thighs, and butts is known as cellulite. Ick.

Well, there are ways to learn how to get rid of cellulite, but what I want to focus on is what doesn’t work. All too often we see products advertised that promise to rid us of our cellulite and make us look like the latest Hollywood star! Most of the time, they are fake! Here are some of those things that do not work.

Creams and Lotions - Ah, yes, melt away your unsightly cellulite simply by massaging some cream on your thighs and rear. Sorry, no, ain’t gonna happen. At most, they might temporarily shrink the fat cells. But they will come back, like a sequel to a bad horror movie.

Body Wraps - Again, these may provide a temporary fix but the truth is that it is very temporary. Actually, body wraps may not even be healthy for you. Next time you see an advertisement for these, just turn the television off!

Electric Muscle Stimulation - A dream come true, yes? Well, dream on. You just strap on this device, turn it on, and flop back down to watch more TV. And like magic, your cellulite goes away. Sorry, it only removes the lumps in your wallet.

The real solution isn’t so easy. If you really want to learn how to get rid of cellulite, you have to work for it. You eat right, avoid certain foods, and exercise to shrink up those fat cells. That’s the only solution of any effectiveness that will reduce cellulite and leave our skin looking smooth.

Yes, it’s a bum deal, but we can do it if we are committed and if we have the drive and determination to get rid of those dimples!
