I Struggle With My Body Image

I hate my stretch marks
Top | New | Old
Consider this. They show that you are a mother. It is something good. Beauty isn't a polished body. It is a body that has lived life and survived. Try not to focus on what society says is beautiful. Let your own unique beauty shine, girl. You ROCK!
@PoetryNEmotion I don't know about the op, but not everyone has stretch marks because they're a mother...
@AcidBurn Some have them from losing large amounts of weight. Thank you for pointing this out, Acid. People are too focused upon external beauty in life. People should develop their minds. That's all.

They're part of you.. Accept then then forget they exist

Stretch marks are war wounds from your past, they tell a story; just like every gray hair and wrinkle. Your face and body are your book of life where the markings of your existence reside.
Apply Bio-oil... Or vit E oil and aloe Vera on it. 🤗

@Vivaci Aloe Vera oil makes for good lube too😉
@SW-User I wouldn't be surprised, considering its helping properties.... though I've never seen its oil before, only gel.

We all come in unique shapes and sizes and I’m sure you’re lovely!

I feel the same way but if you don't like it that does not mean everyone does not like it. Most people won't even notice it or if they do most people think nothing of it or actually think it is cute .

the marks will lighten with time
when they settle down and bother you very much
you can always consider a pretty tattoo

Stretch marks tells a story of courage

Stretch marks can be looked on as a badge of honour, its proof of a life you made.

Your stretch marks are part of what makes you a real woman; not a lifeless marble statue.
