I lost about 30 pounds weight few years back and got some ugly stretch marks, especially on my arms :(

I gained about 20 pounds of that bk, and am now trying to lose it again.. More so coz I m getting married in November.

However, I don't wana get any more stretch marks! :(


Just curious, does any one else has the same situation? And any advice?

Thanks!!

    Stretch marks are from GAINING the weight, not from losing it. If you have gained a lot of weight you have stretch marks. No way around it.

    Stretch marks look uglier when you lose.. It's the facts of life. I have had a baby and have been really heavy at points in my life, so I have the good 'ol arm stretch marks..

    I put sunblock on them and tan.. It fades them out.. If you tan without the sunblock tho, it will burn your stretch marks and they will look really red. Also, this works for me.. Everyone is different.

    Good luck hun. xo
