Leaving this here as a reminder <| sep |> i too enjoyed doctor strange <| sep |> I think you attacked Carthage too early . At the start of the game they are way stronger than you in DEI . It is easier to expand north and east first . You need to get the army reform as fast as possible too , your early units are shit . <| sep |> The simplest explanation of cellulite is this fat hernias . You have connective tissue under your skin . Then you have subcutaneous fat which you and all other healthy humans have mostly all over your body . It ' s necessary for survival . It protects all your inside goodies . Defects in the connective tissue allow the fat to bulge through in some places , resulting in the dimpling . Anywhere from 8598 % of postpubescent women have cellulite . Most medical professionals believe it is likely physiologic meaning the result of normal body functions rather than pathologic result of illness or disease . Nothing discovered so far cures cellulite which again , supports the idea that it probably isn ' t pathologic no disease , no cure . The fact that it always seems to show up in the same places , these places tend to be sensitive to female hormones all the places you grew womanly curves , and that it rarely shows up in men and mostly in men who have a hormone imbalance that results in higher estrogen all seems to suggest that this is just a normal part of being female and that those lucky lumpless ladies are outliers . The upside to that is , you ' re not alone . The downside to it is , you ' re stuck with it . There are things that some doctors think helps reduce the appearance . I have a book from Dr . Murad hoity toity dermatologist of celebrities about cellulite that actually has a nononsense explanation and approach to reducing its appearance no promises of curing or magic potions . Basically , balanced diet with lots of fresh fruits , veggies , and healthy fats , improving circulation through exercise , minimizing sun exposure sun damages the skin and its underlying connective tissues , making cellulite worse , and reducing stress stress increases hormones like epinephrineadrenaline and norepinephrine , which have been associated with the development of cellulite . There are a few other things he suggests to make lumps less noticeable superficially , such as regular dry brushing and good moisturizing I do this , and it makes the skin very soft and fresh looking , which in turn makes the lumps less obvious . Taking care of the outside skin WON ' T make them go away , keep that in mind , but it will make them less noticeable . It ' s like how a tan makes you look thinner it isn ' t actually changing your size , but when you look radiant , the imperfections are forgettable .
