I have always had a few stretch marks but since I started loosing weight stretch marks have been showing up all over. Since I started loosing weight my arms, stomach, and inner thigh have new stretch marks. I know they will fade in time but they will always be there. Any advice on how to minimize them as they come?

    Stretchmarks suck!!! There is no way to get rid of them. No matter what you see sold in stores. The only thing I can recommend is lotion your skin OFTEN to prevent yourself from getting more and DO NOT SCRATCH THEM. It makes them worse.

    Good Luck!!:wink:

    Vitamin E is also really good for stretch marks- not the pills, the oil. Just rub right on them.

    Unfortunately they are here to stay.:cry: I actually found that cocoa butter does minimize their appearance, and they will fade with time. When I had my daughter almost two years ago, I was appauled at the number of stretch marks that appeared as my belly shrunk! They were purple and red and looked terrible. I used cocoa butter religiously for several months and now they are white and barely visible! Hang in there and definately moisturize a lot to prevent others from appearing!:flowerforyou:
