Hi all!! I’m currently in college and I noticed I have these marks on the side of my hip/lower stomach area. I can admit, I haven’t been eating the healthiest in college but I also work out a lot/was sick for a long time and didn’t have an appetite for weeks so I think my weight has been fluctuating up and down. I’m not sure if these are stretch marks or what? I have some since they are normal and I don’t see anything wrong with them but why are these red? I know I look pregnant in the second picture but I’m not, just had a big dinner after being at work all day so I have a food baby LOL! (At least I don’t think I’m pregnant since I’m on the pill plus used a condom, haven’t missed a period yet either....) But please let me know if these are stretch marks or not! And if you have any tips about getting rid/how to make them less visible that would be great and I appreciate it!!
