i developed cellulite in my early 20's - it wasn't bad but it was certainly there - and now in my late 20's (after 3 years of high raw even with occasional days of unhealthy foods) it is almost nonexistent.

If you have gall bladder and/or liver problems I would definitely suggest the no overt fat approach for a while (say 6 weeks). I got the advice to try no overt fats from a medical doctor and certified nutritionist at a clinic specialized in nutritional therapy (they knew i was vegan and at the time and i said i ate a lot of raw foods - actually i'm 100%).

Thanks for the link. I also eat no overt fats - no avocado, durian, coconut, nuts/seeds, olives or oils.
