What to do when stretch marks come back...

Hi everyone....

So I have lost almost 20 pounds now, and this week, I have noticed that some of my stretch marks are becoming visible again, and some of my skin that I guess is beginning to shrink is getting wrinkly and such. Now, I am curious what I might be able to do to help my skin reduce back to somewhat normal sizes, considering I do not/cannot go to a gym to use weights and such for toning. Are there any creams or anything that might help? (I will be getting coco butter soon).

Thanks guys!

    It's natural in the process of weight loss for your skin to be tight or loose. Eventually you'll find that as you hit your maintenance goal for a while your stretch marks will turn from being red to white and almost nonexistent. :)

    Can you get a spray on tan or lotions like Aveda that has color in them? I think tanned stretch marks look better than untanned ones.
