I was reading a magazine today when I was waiting at the dentist office and I saw an article about a runway model that had a baby and then was back on the runway 3 months later. Are you serious? I have never had kinds and I would never get on a runway. I would have to work out for months and months to look like her (and I'm not even big at all). What I don't understand though is how these women don't have stretch marks.

Maybe they have had some sort of stretch mark removal procedure done before they went back to modeling. But still I can't imagine how someone's body could snap back into shape that fast. She said she gained 60 pounds and was back to work 3 months later meaning that she lost 20 pounds and looked great again that fast. I don't even have close to that much weight to lose and I don't think I could do it that fast and even if I did lose all that weight I don't know how their bodies look so great and tight. It's like they never had kids (or ever ate anything.

I was looking at this website, www.allaboutstretchmarks.com and it talks about how to prevent and get rid of stretch marks (because that is one of the reasons I am scared to death of having kids). The website really makes me feel better knowing that there are ways to help with stretch marks. They just seem so gross to me (I feel bad saying that because so many people have them) but I just feel like if I can avoid them, I will at any cost ha. This website actually has a ton of information about stretch marks that I had no idea about it seems interesting (for something so gross).

But I am sure that one day I will probably have kids and stretch marks but maybe by then they will know how to totally avoid them and no one will get them ever (I know wishful thinking right?) but it seriously does scare me like a lot to think that my skin is going to stretch like that one day and then have to go back to its original size and shape (and color). Maybe I'll be like the model and bounce back right away.
