Tom is 100% correct - cellulite is just fat like any other fat that is in your body. Yes, the way it forms gives it a certain appearance, but if you want to get rid of it, you need to get rid of the fat.

You may be required to get to a very low body fat percentage before the cellulite disappears, or you may not - everyone is different.

Many of the things that have been mentioned in this thread may help the appearance of cellulite to be minimal, but if you want it to actually go away, you need to lower your body fat percentage. As is always the case, the number on a scale is not as important as your level of body fat. You can weigh very little and still have a higher level of body fat than is healthy.

I wouldn't recommend that anyone runs out and becomes a bodybuilder (unless they want to, of course), but have you ever seen a successful bodybuilder with cellulite? No, because their body fat percentage is so low that it's just not physically possible for that body fat storage to still be there.
