    I have stretch marks on my shoulders. I'm not sure if it's from weight gain or not.

    I have stretch marks everywhere. I have them on my chest from my young weight lifting days. My stomach from top to bottom from my sympathy weight gain. Elbow from a dislocation. Inner thighs from weight gain. They fade when you lose weight. Ive heard some good things about bio oil. I ve looked into it but at this point Im more concerned with losing weight I think when I get to the maintaining stage Ill revisit getting them to become smaller.

    NOT SO! To all you Moms....Stretchmarks are a badge of honor. I for one would not trade the circumstances (4 babies) under which I received them.

    I say LOVE your stretch marks, wrinkles, cellulite, etc. Seriously? We are HUMAN and that means we have flaws. Acceptance and love can cure all :-) I am a walking stretchmark, girl, and I love every minute of life.

    I have a lot of stretchmarks too.. Mostly from child birth.. I have tried so many things to get rid of them, but nothing works. The person who invents something that really works without surgery is going to be a billionaire!!

    I've had stretch marks all over my inner thighs, butt, and hips since I was 12! They're not necessarily a sign of being "fat" so it isn't something you should ever feel embarrassed about. Men get them on their arms/shoulders all the time. (I even have one on my knee from a growth spurt) My highest weight was only 165 at 5'8" tall and that was several years after getting my stretch marks. I think they're pretty common these days and nothing to be embarrassed about. If they're in the new stages where they're still purplish-red then the creams and "body butters" found in stores may work a little to reduce the scarring. Otherwise, they should fade once the changes in your skin stop.

    Bio oil is supposed to be excellent, all the Drs in the UK recommend it and I've heard glowing reports but the way to use it is asap...the earlier you start using it after gaining scars etc the better the results. If I gain any from weight loss I'll definitely be getting some but I think 22 year old pregnancy stretch marks are a bit beyond help.

    hmm i don't really know, i always just accepted they were there and whoever didn't like it would have to deal! i dated one guy who really liked them, he liked that they were kind of silvery - hahaha, who would thought! he was a good guy. there was another guy i was with that hadn't been with many women, so he didn't know what they were and thought they were from a lot of surgeries, hahahahahahahaha~

    I have more stretch marks than skin on my stomach (thats not an exageration - honestly) after having my daughter. They have faded but nothing will ever get rid of them. They are actually turning into wrinkles now the fat underneath them has gone. My tummy looks like the face of one of those wrinkly dogs !!!! (don't know the breed). But without them I wouldn't have my daughter, and I know which I'd rather.

    I'm not in love with my stretch marks, but the fact that I received them through bearing children is something to be proud of for me!

    I totally agree! I hid under sweaters after I had my first, cuz I didn't think my hubby would find me attractive anymore. And I wouldn't do anything with him during the day or with the light on because of it. I hate it when guys are shallow. Almost makes me sick. Maybe they should be doing an evaluation on themselves.

    I have permanent stretch marks on the small of my back and on my thighs from the year I turned 12. I grew from 4' 11" to 5' 7 1/2". My husband calls them my stripes. I had a baby 19 months ago and only got stretch marks on my chest from the pregnancy weight gain. Crazy, huh?!

    I have them around my hips/love handles too. Some of them have faded a little, I'm hoping that with enough toning they'll fade away.:ohwell: I'd tried Bio oil... waste of money. all it did was make my hips slimmy and it my hands smell.
