When I lost about 8 inches from my waist, my stretchmarks got whiter and less visible. I do have a lot of flabby skin around my belly that won't go away, though, so remember to pay attention to that.

They will always be there like Taylor said, but they may turn from pink to white as she loses weight (this happened to me). Putting lotion on them also helps to fade them

Um, stretch marks? There are creams to make them less visible, and stuff, but sometimes they don't go away. Which is okay, if she fades them, and stuff, she can probably wear make-up to make them less noticeable. Most girls get them at some point, whether they're overweight or not, because they'll gain some weight pretty fast during puberty regardless, so I'm sure she wouldn't be the only girl to have them, so maybe ask someone else what they do about that.
