Is Cellulite Connected to Weight Gain?
No, you can be perfectly skinny and still have cellulite. The causes aren't certain but most people think it's related to genetic makeup or hormones, specifically estrogen levels and cycles. Almost every single woman has cellulite somewhere–except for a small percentage. Interestingly, men do not get cellulite no matter how overweight they are.
