    a bittersweet discovery

    Well I was studying myself in the mirror last night lookin for changes and I realized that my "lovehandles" are getting smaller...however since there's not so much of an indent in there anymore, I can see that I have a bunch of new stretch marks formed in there! darn stretch marks...I've got enough of those already! oh well...gotta take the bad with the good I guess!

    You'll see your body change in the most incredible ways. Since Atkins and strength training, I swear my butt has lifted 4 inches. LOL My legs are looking slimmer and more toned. Some of the changes I had never expected, such as the indentation on my abs. I have abs! Maybe not quite yet, but I'm visual...I see them

      Sheddingflab, Try rubbing some baby oil on your stretch marks. You know they will fade. My husband is very proud of his stretch marks as it shows that he is losing weight. There is also some stuff that pregnant ladies use on their swollen bellies to stop stretch marks but I am not sure what it is called in the US

      I don't care about stretch marks as no one can see them cept me.

        thanks for the suggestion cookiecat, but i've been through 2 pregnancies...i rubbed baby oil, vitamin e, cocoa butter...lol and i still look like i've been attacked by a lion! my skin has always just been prone to stretch marks...even as a skinny little girl when i hit puberty i started getting them on my hips and butt, and i walked a lot when i was younger and had them on my calves...most of those are faded however over time! i know its no big deal lol...but i'm 26 and newly single...i don't need anymore stretch marks lol. but i'll take it as long as i'm losing weight
        and dogatemyname, congrats on the newly lifted butt and abs!!!
