i have had them for as long as i remeber, i think since i was 12 or something... for a long long time.

they NEVER GO AWAY. so learn to love them

then, tan, and rub palmersbody on them religiously, ... as in after every shower,.... but dont over tan, ...anyhow you can reach a point where they almost blend in ... but they never go away...they sort of turn a clear color when they "heal".

ya, ive lost ALOT so far and still have them, but really they aren't as bad as I thought they would be..

I am glad I decided to start losing the weight while still young than when I was older.

my skin tone is pretty pale and the stretch marks blend in pretty well. I still got another ~50lbs to lose so hopefully everything works out

Dry brushing, tanning, and neutrogena and cream are what I use, and my stretch marks are barely noticeable. A slight shade lighter than my skin.
