MemberMaybe you bees know what’s going on here.
I’ve suddenly developed stretchmarks, but I haven’t gained any weight, and my pants are looser. WHY?
I don’t want my man to see me naked, I feel fat, and I don’t know why it’s happening.
MemberAs we ladies get older our skin looses it’s elasticity. Unfortunately that can equate to stretch marks for some of us…myself included. Usually you can see stretch marks as you loose weight because you skin was streched out before and has lost some of those fat cells making the stretch marks visible.
MemberMy WW team leader claims drinking milk will help increase the elasticity in your skin and reduce stretch marks. I’ve never had any experience with this, but maybe that could help?
Membercocoa butter works for me – though it’s more the act of rubbing it in that stimulates the skin.
MemberMrs. Peters has my explanation.
But you know, don’t stress yourself about this (easier said than done, I know). The body changes and your man, if he’s worth his salt, loves you no matter what.
MemberThe only thing I’d say to you is buy something to put on them, and they will quickly settle down a bit. They can be a bit scary when they’re fresh!
Unfortunately weight loss can create them as well as weight gain!
