Stretch marks, skin elasticity, and pregnancy?

I used to be 50 lbs heavier and have stretch marks from then. Luckily, my skin has so far adjusted with the weight loss...I think. It seems like I'll lose some weight, my tummy will sag a lil, then it'll appear to tighten up. Sorta like it's catching up with the weight loss. Then I lose another 5 lbs, and it continues cyclically. I'm only 25 %26amp; losing the weight at a good pace (usually 2 lbs a weeks thru healthy diet %26amp; exercise), so I'm hoping that when I lose the next 50 lbs and get to my goal weight, I wont have a belly that touches my knees.





Anybody successfully had their tummy (or other areas too) "snap" back naturally, or am I just imagining that my tummy varies in sagginess?





Also, I haven't had kids yet, will the already acquired stretch marks provide for growth of the tummy when I do have kids, or will I get a whole new set of stretch marks?

I think you will get a whole new set of strech marks. I have two kids and two sets of stretch marks. Sorry.. maybe you will be luckier ..
Reply:i think that if you get kids, the old stretch~marks will be there but the newer ones are the ones that will show.. I think.. I don't know...I am only in middle school.. how should i know this?? i just took a guess...
Reply:well, it depends where your stretch marks are right now, but if you keep your skin moisturized really well thoughout your pregnancy you won't get very many stretch marks at all! \
