    You really do look great. Your stomach is flat and if you get a tan it will cover most of your stretch marks, that is what I do and you can hardly see mine now.

    LOL I still think you look great! Yes, you are right, there are stretch marks and some loose skin… but it’s perfectly normal :) You have a really pretty hourglass shape, your husband probably can’t keep his hands off of you.

    Whether or not the previous pictures portrayed you in your perspective is beyond the point. You have a nice body and if you are looking for condemnation, you won’t find it here. We are here to uplift, not tear you apart. So absorb those compliments and know they are genuine. ;-)

    I think I understand what your saying. I look like you I’m skinny/curvy and look nice in clothes but the skin and stretch marks bother me too. Good luck.

    I would say creams don’t do much. I used very expensive creams before I gave birth and for a couple of years after. They didn’t do much. My stretch marks have faded, but I think they would have faded on their own, anyway. But I know that even if someone would have told me they don’t work, I probably would have bought them, anyway. Sometimes you gotta cling to something. I hope to post my first pictures here some day. I have been visiting the site for a few months now and I am trying to get the courage.

Thank you for your kind words everyone.

Will update in 2 months. :)

    Gorgeous flat tummy and curvy waist, I’m jealous! I think you look fantastic. I have loads of stretchmarks and loose skin, and no products seem to work for me.

    TBH when I look at your photos, I don’t even give the stretch marks a second glance, you have a damn sexy figure and should be proud! Bet you have great legs too.

    Wow I can’t believe someone actually has a tummy that looks like mine! Actually yours is flatter and the stretchmarks are more faded than mine. I’ve been so depressed. I thought I was alone. My fiance told me I had tiger stripes =( I showed my friend and she said wow he was right. That looks really weird. I feel so much better. Like there’s hope for me to lose weight and my marks will start fading. Your tummy is beautiful I want mine to look that great someday. You have pretty undies too. I bet you look sexy for your husband. I’ve been too ashamed to buy sexy undies that fit me. I weigh 131 and I’m 5’4. Thank you for being courageous, beautiful, and keeping hope alive =)
