Hello all! Over the past year and a half ive been working on my body and have lost over 100 pounds. I thought losing weight would’ve been the easiest way to become happy but didn’t think of some other things that would come along with weight loss. Stretch marks, loose skin, the fun stuff. Staying positive while losing weight and seeing that loose skin and stretch marks might deter you a bit. Here are some things I’ve found help me calm down about the skin and stretch marks.
-
For the stretch marks, I’ve always viewed them similar to scars. They don’t bother me and you need to accept it’ll be on your body for a while, so why not flaunt it? It’s a way of proving you worked your ass off to get there.
-
Remember that losing weight is a marathon not just a walk. The skin will tighten up and the stretch marks will fade, you must give it time and stay positive.
-
In my skin routine I started doing a witch hazel rub before everything else on my face and overtime I feel it’s helped tighten my face and the skin a little bit, give it a go!
-
Use that dislike or despise for the loose skin/stretch marks and put it towards a goal to fill out your frame. If you see loose skin around your chest, maybe set a small goal of getting a bigger chest to fill out the skin. This will help you stay motivated and keep pushing.
I hope a couple of these things will help some of you. I know it’s hard to talk about sometimes and even harder to accept. Here’s my own loose skin which I’ve gotten better with over time. Good luck to you all :)
