do red/pink stretch marks mean you're gaining weight?

    It depends. They mean skin is being stretched and while it can be from weight gain it can also be hormonal (puberty for guys and girls) or anything that causes skin stretching (rapid muscle gain can also cause them). Finally some medications can also give you stretch marks.

    So the answer is maybe.... but it could be other things too.
