ok notice this first please........!

i do not care thta much.. you'll understand why i posted this as the first sentence in a momment..

anyways, i've got stretch marks, lots of them (i am farily muscular in my legs and they're on the way there too)

anyways.. i hate them... i've always had a problemw ith my body/appearance... i've always thought i was ugly as fuck... in the last copule of years i've developed stretch makrs worse then the average pregnant woman..

is there ANYTHING i can do about them short of working out? like some miracle cure even it takes 20 years..?

i'm married and my wife loves me and my body... i just don't like it... so getting rid of them isn't important enough to me to work out (just trust me it never works out well.. sure it would if i cared enough.. but like i said i'm married, i don't ened to impress anyone...

just curuios if anyones got any miracle cure.... fi not, that's fine, if so that's great.

Well as far as i know of stretch marks are just one of those things that will never go away, However you can buy cream for it which helps and makes it a lot less visible some people claim that the cream actually makes it near enough invisible and have said that it has made them go away.

Its good that your wife loves you for who you are but then again its also important that you feel good about yourself..

I didn't know you were married slip, How old did you say you were again like early 20's?

i don't use google cuz usually the first 30 pages are porno ads... or RX med adds... or just something to sell you.... and lets not forget the sites you click on cuz the preview has the exact text you're looking for, when thep age load syou see nothing but other links to click on, and if you click on the page it tkaes you to another link page... and so fourth until you're back where your started...

yeah i don't really use google anymore, but thanks for the article.

i have stretch marks on my tits and coco butter is what i use... hes right it is seriously the shit... works wonders..:thumbsup:

uhhmmm.... get off this site and go do a physical activity? Yes I'm aware you said you didn't want to but jesus, go do something.

where do you get cocoa butter

^^ at the store

alls i can say is to prevent more watch your diet, and even if its light cardiovascular exercise like walking, try and do it as much as possible

yes but i also know a guy whos 6'4 and he literately grew to that height within weeks.. hes the skinniest guy also and he has huge stretch marks all over.. even on his back.. exercise is a must anyways.. keeps everything flowing..

yes i'm aware of this but i know myself.. and i'm not gonna go and say i'll work out and quit 6 days later again... i'd rathe rust not get into it..

however i do get quite a cardiovascular workout usually.... i am a smoker after all... waking around in walmart with the wife is like... well.... O M F G... lol...

but yeah working out is not an option.... like i said i'm loking for some miracle (btw i'll start using that cocoa butter to see how it works) it's not THAT important to me... my wife loves my body and i don't plan to leave her...

and it's not like i'm so far i'm endangering my health... the exact opposite actually... i weigh alot but i have extremely musclar legs (legs tha tpeople work years to obtain) but other then that, i've got a very small build... i just got a beer gut...

lmao...everytime i start workin out i quit the next day

Sorry, Slip, but welcome to the human race. Unless you have money for surgery, serious chemical peels, dermabrasion, or laser treatment, stretch marks are there to stay. They're essentially little scars. Cocoa butter will moisturize your skin. But it won't prevent them or remove them. Everyone has some stretch marks, even relatively thin, toned folks. Consider yourself in good company--about 99.9% of the human race.

Stretch marks are scars, eh? Don't worry mate, chicks dig scars. Or so I'm told. Most girls are horrified by my cigarette burns. :wtf:

theres a product called Bio oil which is really good for healing scars an stretch marks, I had a huge scar on my arm, after using bio oil for a year its almost invisible now, might work for you.

smokinghabit......stretch mark are not just caused by weight gain....stretching, muscles growth, growing taller....they all contribute.


slipknot....Sometimes they fade with time...coco butter helps...i would buy some scar lotion, like mederma. ....oh and a lot of skinny poeple have strech marks AND cellulite.

my boyfriend has stretch marks on his arms up by his arm pits, cause when he was locked up he just started to lift weights ALL the time, it was like, all he did. He uses real cocoa butter (not the type in a lotion or a cream but like a block of it lol) and I think it helps, I use mederma, for scars on my forearm which are pretty bad but over the years they have faded and turned white (instead of purple/pink thick scars), I recommend it.

Physical activity will NOT prevent stretch marks in muscular people who are getting them from gains in bulk do to muscle mass.
Keep well hydrated and use cocoa butter daily after your shower to prevent them and slow them down.

Oh- btw- those armpit stretch marks on weightlifters are, IMHO, akin to a battle scar. If you're bulking up fast enough to get them, be proud.
