so it's not as bad as I was bracing for during weight loss... but I do have some loose skin and stretch marks, and darn it I still got that squishy spot on my belly. any recommendations for losing that. my last bit of weight its just toning. it's a little here a little there, and I want to make my girls look a little better... I dread surgery so my next two years of setting habits in stone I want to eliminate the need for surgical touch ups.

creams, exercise, diet, voodoo magic.... anyone with success here?

    I'm 21 with networks of stretch marks, old and new. Losing 40 lbs has reduced my bust considerably, made new (relatively visible stretch marks) and resulted in a "deflated" look with more mass below the apex. I lost this weight over a year plus and did not avoid this.

    I am sure some of my marks will improve over time but honestly, I am expecting everything to stay pretty much the same. I guess love what you have and don't worry about it.

    I am unsure that any cream, exercise or voodoo magic will do any good. I have read that gelatin and bone broth support collagen.

    Not a success story but thought I'd add my experience; changing your view on things is much easier than surgery.
