Reply from Lara, Age 19 - 10/24/05 - IP#: 169.229.95.xxx I thought you only got stretch marks from gaining weight fast, not from losing it - don't they happen when your skin can't expand fast enough to keep up with your weight gain? I think you're safe if you're just losing.
Reply from Julie, Age 17 - 10/24/05 - IP#: 4.242.171.xxx I can't tell you for certain, but from my understanding, you get stretch marks if you lose a lot of weight in short amount of time. So, as long as you lose it slowly, you should be fine. Also, I've heard that cocoa butter works really good to make them fade, if you're conscerned about that. Again, I don't know this for sure, so if anyone knows differently, go ahead and correct me.
