    Yeah, I have some new stretch marks on my shoulders that appeared since I started losing weight (that's weird though, usually, stretch marks come with putting on weight, but anyway). My wedding is at the end of september and I would love them to be discreet by that time.

    I'll take any tips you have.

    For your wedding use make up foundation......I know of a lot of ladies that do that for tan lines and such......Congratulations!!
  • I agree with other posters in that i have read they don't go away. However, I read recently a couple of things about them - 1. The red angry marks could be because you are dehydrated. Hydrating that area can cause the redness to diminish which is why some of these things work. 2. Adrenal fatigue I think has a symptom of angry red stretch marks. Look it up as a symptom just that way and you may see some other tips for reducing the color.

    They're not my stretchmarks, they're my tiger stripes. :)

    Embrace them: it shows how far you've really come.
