Hello, since I have started MFP i have lost about 50 pounds so far altogether and am very close to being at my goal (168, goal of 165). The problem is, i have stretch marks on a large percentage of my stomach. Any men that have lost a significant amount of weight have this problem and if so, what did you do about it?

I have them from child bearing....;)
my son has them from weight gain on his belly and from growing on his arms (muscle growth)
vitamin E oil seems to help or so I hear or bioderm I think
I personally don't give a flying *kitten* about mine...Not sure my son does either.....but I have bioderm just in case he does.0 -
You do whatever you would do for scars - surgery, live with them, or use lotions/oils to "lessen" the look. IMO, the latter don't work.0

A little bit of sun will make them look lighter.
But don't end up with skin cancer. Just a bit of sun.
