im scared of what my stomach will look like . I went from 214 to 188. I'd like to make it to 135 but would love suggestions on any sort of creams i could use. I know il always have it but id like to make it less noticeable.

    They may look a bit better once you're in a healthy weight range. But they're there forever. Embrace it. You'll be less concerned with them when your body looks great anyway.

    Creams don't work. I DO find that if I keep up with moisturizing, everything just kind of looks better in general. The stretch marks/cellulite don't go away but when your skin is not dried out, it helps with the appearance.

    I hope they do look better. It'll take time to embrace it .

    I know. I've had mine since I was 12 probably. They look better. And even the cellulite looks 100x better. Not perfect, but I'm fit and can wear whatever I want so I don't mind anymore.
