Start drinking a glass of water first thing in the morning, before you have your morning coffee or tea. Carry a bottle of water with you as you go about your day. Remember to refill it often.
Have a spinach smoothie for breakfast. Blend a cup of almond milk, a cup of spinach, half a banana and a kiwi or handful of strawberries. This high-powered breakfast will keep your energy level high, and it’s a great way to get a serving of vegetables at breakfast. Eat plenty of raw vegetables. Raw salad greens, broccoli, carrots and other vegetables are packed with nutrients, antioxidants and water. If you make them the mainstay of your diet you’ll see a difference in the amount of cellulite you have.
Consume Omega-3 fatty acid. Since we eat fatty foods or at least foods filled with all kinds of fats all the time, therefore, consuming the proper fatty acids and neglecting the ones that are harmful to us are vital for a complete recovery from cellulite. Pasture-raised meats, dairy products enriched with Omega-3, Edamame, wild rice, canola oil, or walnuts are only a few of the many foods that are rich in this fatty acid and should be consumed in large quantities for a complete removal of cellulite.
Fried foods like french fries, fried chicken, and onion rings. Packaged snacks like corn chips, potato chips, cheese puffs, and pretzels. Foods high in salt, like canned soup or dips and dressings, cause you to retain water. Foods high in sugar, like candy, baked goods, and soda, cause you to gain weight. Alcohol, especially when it’s paired with a sugary mixer like soda or cranberry juice, can cause you to gain weight and retain water.
Buy free weights and perform exercises meant to tone your thighs, buttocks, and abs. If you have cellulite on your arms, perform arm exercises as well. Join a gym and work with a trainer to increase the amount of weight you lift over time. Contrary to common belief, lifting heavier weights fewer times, rather than doing a lot of reps with lighter weights, is better for building muscle.
Do outdoor sprints. Measure out a distance of 1⁄4 mile (0. 4 km) on your street or at a nearby park. Sprint that distance, take a 20-second break, sprint it again, and repeat for a total of 4 sprints. As you improve, add more sprints to your workout. Sprint on your treadmill. If you work out indoors, use a faster setting on your treadmill to sprint for about 3 minutes. Increase the speed as you improve over time. Do bike sprints. Using either your bicycle or a stationary bike, ride as fast as you can uphill for a few minutes.
Make sure your skin and the brush are both dry before beginning. Starting at your feet, brush upward toward your heart. Concentrate on areas with a lot of cellulite, like your thighs and buttocks. Brush your arms from your hands to your shoulders. Brush your stomach in a clockwise circular motion and your arms in an upward motion. All brushing movements should be made towards your heart to encourage the return of blood and lymphatic flow. Take a shower after brushing to wash away the dead skin cells and toxins that have risen to the surface.
Bathe in lukewarm or cool water, rather than hot. Cool water tightens your skin and makes it look more toned. Moisturize your skin with a product that contains caffeine. Buy a cream or lotion that contains at least 5 percent caffeine, which is said to improve skin tone and decrease the appearance of cellulite. Use another topical product designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite. There are many creams and lotions on the market designed specifically for this purpose.
