Affordable ways to reduce cellulite

Q: Are there any affordable ways to reduce cellulite?
I realize cellulite is merely fat, but aren't there treatments that can help compress or smooth the appearance of cellulite? I am not overweight, and I exercise regularly. Other than dieting down from a size 6 to a size 1, aren't there any affordable products or home remedies that can help? It's not unbearably hideous, but it does make me reluctant to wear shorts in public.


Incidentally, I've tried cellulite creams, but most are too expensive for me to use on a daily/nightly basis. I've noticed that caffeine and seaweed are frequent ingredients in cellulite creams, however. Are there any home remedies involving caffeine that might help?

A: You can try these home remedies:
Also here's the list of food that helps fighting cellulite.

For reducing cellulite, as well as for losing weight I recommend you to do these things:
  • Walk, swim, run, dance...
  • Exercise at least half an hour a day
  • Drink lots of water - improves blood circulation, makes cellulite less visible
  • Eat health food - you can check more on the above link
  • Brush and massage - also makes cellulite less visible, helps removing it, boosts circulation and skin looks healthier
  • Moisturize your skin
  • Take cold showers
  • Relax - stress could also cause cellulite accumulation
And avoid doing these things:
  • Junk food - it has "bad" calories (your body is not able to use them up, instead it stores them in form of fat, and fat becomes cellulite if pushed away from cells)
  • Alcohol, cigarettes - generally they're very bad for your skin tone, and improve the appearance of cellulite. Alcohol also dehydrates your body.
  • Physical inactivity - less physically active you are more calories don't end up burned but stored. Also inactivity makes your circulation worse, and so cellulite can form more easily.
  • Tight clothes - those are not good for your blood and lymph circulation, so avoid them if possible.
