Quotes to ponder:
"GET OVER IT. For many women, their butt, hips, and thighs are their biggest problem areas. The dreaded 'cottage cheese' appearance provokes anxiety, lots of Googling, and the purchase of expensive gels, creams, spa treatments, QVC torture devices, and multi-level-marketing miracle cures."
"Cellulite is a normal feature of the female body, even for lean, athletic women. It’s a uniquely female aspect of physiology that can have a large genetic component."
"Nothing beats fitness. No cream, gel, device, or procedure will make a difference in your overall appearance like regular exercise and a solid, healthy diet will."
