I sometimes wonder what the best way to treat your stretch marks is. I mean this. I mean realistically speaking, so many people get stretch marks, some more than others, and it ultimately means that you have lost some degree of elasticity in your skin and otherwise. But this being said, when a 20 something year old has stretch marks, it’s a strange occurrence to say the least. And it depends on the person. For example, one of my little girls that I still picture at the age of probably 8 has now had a kid, and she’s now 21 realistically, but it’s weird. Anyway, she had a baby, and now you see her in pictures and she has a better stomach than any of us who have never had kids. And she has no stretch marks whatsoever. On the other hand, a guy I know who is her same age was just a chubby kid, and he has since lost about 50 pounds, which is ridiculous. But he has stretch marks literally covering his entire stomach, it’s pretty bad. So I wonder if there’s something you can do whether getting fat or pregnant to avoid those stretch marks. I mean most of the time there’s not enough skin to have them surgically cut out, and even then that leaves scars. But obviously, somebody has figured out the secret, because there are people who really should have stretch marks and don’t at this point in time.
