>>166207I have really bad cellulite. anyone's got tips for that? (I know there's not a lot you can do anyway since it's genetic)
also, there's fat between my tights and my butt which forms kind of a lump that looks really bad in jeans/naked. I don't know the english word for it… do you know, what I mean? How do I get rid of it?
I have a BMI of 19. I know, that's not super skinny but I don't feel like losing more weight will do the trick. I only keep losing fat from my upper body and my ribs and my shoulder blades already freak me out while my lower body half remains fat.

>>166224High protein, low carbs.
Eat meat, fish, eggs and vegetables as much as you want, but cut the flour (bread, pasta, pizza), rice, and of course the most important, cut the sugar.
Don't drink milk, but you can eat some good quality cheese.
Be careful with fruits, today's fruits is modified to be sweeter, it's too sweet.
Drink water.
But most important, cut the sugar and flour. Don't eat that at all. Try two months. I can swear you will see results, especially in the second month.

>>166225thanks. I’ve been told this quite a few times. do you know why this would work? like what about sugar causes cellulite? and why would cutting it out improve it?
I have to admit, I crave sugar and carbs a lot. I can easily sustain on a low-fat 1200 kcal diet but cutting out sugar and carbs in general would be really hard for me. I think it would be a good motivation to know why this is necessary.
No. 166233
>>166231but I already have a low calorie diet and I don't have a problem with eating too much because of carbs and sugar. I don't even eat bread or pasta regularly. I mostly eat fruit, vegetables, tofu and fish but I also have chocolate, sweets, cake or ice cream on a daily basis because I crave desserts and I rather have some ice cream than a bowl of pasta. still, I don't have a problem with eating too much. so if there's nothing specifically about sugar that causes cellulite I don't see the point in cutting it out.
>>166228jup. I also used to have a lower BMI and it was still there.
No. 166236
>>166235well I have ADHD and while I'm not saying it's an excuse it does increase sugar cravings because sugar plays a role in dopamine production. I also know that sugar can worsen ADHD symptoms.
anyway, what I'm trying to say is that cutting out sugar or carbs in general would be really hard for me and possibly affect my academic performance negatively. I function well on a high carb low fat diet but I'm a mess on high protein, high fat, low carb. so I'd like to know if it really would be worth it meaning hearing from others that it worked for them. I tried a lot of stuff I found via google but none of it did anything for me so I'm asking for experiences and explanations. everything discussed in this thread could easily be googled.
anyway, I going to give it a try for maybe three months.

>>166226I wrote the post you refered to and can tell you why sugar actually is making cellulite.
Sugar is one of the most toxic food because our body can not directly digest it.
Sugar is involved in saccharification and produces active oxygen that leads to further peroxidarion.
Further saccharification causes AGEP (Advanced Glycation End Products), which leads to more severe body damage.
Except sugar can be one of factors that cause ADHD, depression, personality disorder, slow learning and psychosomatic disease, it's also stealing minerals from your body, especially the cheapest and the most spread white sugar. Sugar is taking the most important vitamins and calcium when body is fighting to digest it.
The only thing worse than white sugar are artificial sugar, like aspartame, which is inside of all "0 calory" products. It can make one 6 times more fat.
Tl;dr sugar is making your body to suffer so much, that your body can in no way fight against cellulite. So until you don't cut the sugar, you can't win.
Sugar should be a luxury. Of course if you come to your grandma and she bakes a cake for you, you can eat one piece, go ahead. But the rest of 29 days in a month, don't eat it.

>>166247You realise breads, rice and potatoes are all sugars right?

No. 166252
>>166250You do know the sugar in fruit is a whole lot different from the sugar in candy? It gets metabolized differently, because of the phytonutrients and the fiber. They don't cause a blood sugar spike and are one of the healthiest things out there (protects against cancer, promotes healthy bacteria, full of fiber etc.).
You actually need carbs, believe it or not. It's the body's preferred energy source. You only need 20% of your calories coming from fat, only 10% from protein, but at least 50% from carbs.
Sugar isn't bad for you in general, it depends on the package it comes in.
No. 166253
>>166251Yes, I do, but many people don't know how bread is full of sugar so I'm putting accent on it.
Potato is ok, it comes out of the ground. White flour and white rice is much worse, especially white flour, especially in bread, since it's also full of all different kinds of shit, emulgators etc.
Carbs are ok (like potato), but LOW
No. 166254
>>166252It also depends on how your body processes sugar. If you're insulin resistance is shitty to near diabetes level, you should probably go with a low glycemic diet. Nothing is outright banned but you have to be smart about what you pick.
I have PCOS, and some thyroid issues so my body's decision about what to use as it's primary energy source is exactly the opposite of most. It goes for protein first, then fats, then carbs. I've had to adjust my diet accordingly to be high in meat/poultry/fish/egg/tofu, and then a lot of seeds/nuts/legumes/vegetables. Beans and dairy have a fair amount of carbs in them, and it's lower in sugar.
It's very hard to come up with a general diet that works for everyone, because our bodies are so different. People with celiacs get holes in their intestines if they eat wheat, I think we all have to find out how our body works and what works best for it. What works for one of us will probably make the next person really unhealthy if they tried it, nothing wrong with that. It's a mistake to treat all of our bodies as the same, reacting the exact same to the same things, ect.

>>166254Woah, I have exactly the same conditions as you. How the hell do you eat tofu and soy? I have to avoid it and significant amounts of goitrogenic foods (uncooked broccoli, spinach/arugula leaves, strawberries, and of course soy) because it literally landed me in the hospital. I was doing like one meal a day as these awesome protein bars, it was so convenient. My joints were hurting, I was getting increasingly exhausted no matter what, all gradually… you know the drill. When I ran out of those bars, I had to eat other stuff, and two days later I felt SO much better. The pain had disappeared and I was back to my normal-tired self rather than exhausted-tired self. The only thing I changed was those bars. This also happened when I made "green smoothies" with lots of uncooked spinach and kale and strawberries in it. I drank that every day for 3 days and I began feeling exhausted. I quickly remembered reading about goitrogens and realized it must have been that. So yeah, I avoid salads with any of the goitrogenic greens, eating more than a little peanut butter, raw strawberries or peaches… it sucks :( Do you experience this too?
Dude I wish I could subsist on Soylent but it contains soy protein. The closest thing I've found is pea protein and it's much grosser in general.
No. 166257
>>166255>>166256I don't really experience any issue with these as much because it was being aggravated by my PCOS. I tend to stick to peas, carrots, quinoa but most of the cauliflower type problems I have can be solved by steaming them.

>>166236I’m the anon who wrote this and I’m pleasantly surprised I got helpful replies and didn’t get attacked for it.
I’ll try to slowly cut out sugar and refined carbs out of my diet. first I’m cutting out the really obvious, unnecessary stuff like sweets and chocolate. then I’ll try to reduce home baked goods and the like.
today I head porridge made of water and whole grain oats for breakfast, an apple as a snack, home-made tuna-salad for lunch and vegetable soup with seitan for dinner as well as one full-fat frozen frozen yoghurt for desert to substitute ice cream (I mean like actual organic frozen yoghurt I bought and froze myself, not frozen yoghurt ice cream). I went for full fat because it contains less sugar than the low fat versions..
>> Except sugar can be one of factors that cause ADHD,I know this. I read a lot of books on ADHD and nutrition and all of them recommend complex carbs+ protein. however, from forums and meetings with other patients I know that people who suffer from ADHD have huge sugar cravings. bulimia and binge eating is quite common among female adhd-sufferers. sugar does increase dopamine production. that’s why even normal people crave it. ADHD-sufferers who are low in dopamine anyway get easier „addicted“. I don’t want to use this as an excuse I just want to explain why it takes a lot of effort to cut out sugar for a person with this condition. when my concentration is low my first urge is to have something high in sugar. but I need to kick the habit.
anyway, thanks for your helpful reply.
>>Sugar should be a luxury. Of course if you come to your grandma and she bakes a cake for you, you can eat one piece, go ahead. But the rest of 29 days in a month, don't eat it.would recommend only having a treat once a month or could I eat something sweet more often (like once a week) without ruining the whole concept of a low sugar diet? I really enjoy cooking and going to restaurants with my boyfriend and I’m afraid he’ll freak out if I tell him I’m only going to have desert once a month.
but if that’s necessary I’ll try.
What about natural sugars? Like homemade bars made of dates, raw chocolate and nuts?
No. 166270
>>166247where do you get this from? im studying biochemistry (entry level so far) and this is a very strange post. first of all, what do you even mean by sugar? sucrose, fructose, glucose?
sugar is not bad for the body. if it was why would breast milk contain lactose? breast milk also contains oligosaccharide which is a kind of sugar that is very healthy for babies.
when we eat large carbohydrates, like starch, our body breaks down the molecules to simple carbohydrates (monosaccharides). is this what you mean with saccharification? if so, it does not happen when eating monosaccharides which is what most people call sugar.
the process of metabolism uses the monosaccharides which reacts and becomes different acids. this process releases carbon dioxide + hydrogen that gets picked up by molecules. these molecules release the hydrogen to oxygen and that reaction creates excess energy. our body would not have this function if sugar/carbohydrates was not meant to be our primary source of energy. the body does not use protein for energy unless we are starving. fat can be used for energy but humans are definitely designed to eat carbohydrates for energy rather than fat.
and speaking of artificial sugars. the fat we carry on our bodies contains a energy. it is not possible to gain weight, gain fat, by eating something that doesnt contain any energy. i have heard that eating artificial sugars may trick the brain into eating more so therefore you may gain weight. but the 0 calorie foods can not make someone gain weight by themselfs.

>>166272the cellulite is your body's weight of storing fat under the skin, no fancy cream or wrap gimmick will get rid of it, your options are
-surgery. expensive.
-lose weight (even tho you're skinny that's what the cellulite is from)
-increase your muscle mass considerably (this will require a lot of effort and willpower, start doing starting strength with dumbbells, watch some scooby, read some rippletoe or fit stickies).
