Question:
stretch marks

I have a lot of stretch marks. So I figure when I start losing the weight there sill be plenty of hanging skin. Do you guys think this is right?    — Kim N. (posted on December 14, 2002)

Every person is different. However if you're anything like me, lots of stretch marks, I'm sorry to say you'll have some saggy skin :( Don't go buy any special lotions, oils or creams. Just use plenty of your regular body lotion after each shower and then meet yourself a nice plastic surgeon once you're near goal :) That's my approach to it all anyway!

I have a lot of stretch marks from having four kids. I am below goal and I have no sagging skin.

The stretch marks on my belly and inner thighs actually did get a bit smaller. But the ones on my upper arms and outer boobs didn't go back at all. It is really a wait and see game for everyone. Our bodies all react differently. However, I will saw one thing - I look horrible naked and it is worth it because I look GREAT in clothes!
