Saturee Body Cream + Red Light for stretch marks
-
@Serotoninskeptic, yeah, not for some of us. My diet was dairy, shellfish, eggs and collagen—I had a bowl of gelatinous broth daily—and yet the stretch marks remained. In fairness, they weren’t colored but going by Ray’s account of his cousin’s stretch marks, it sounds like hers disappeared completely.

@Jennifer I have a couple on my back from teenage years that dissapeared almost completely as i grew up

@Jennifer I was just thinking about something. So let's say we were to adhere to Ray's advice and eat only milk, eggs and oysters for a few days. We were missing one important element - highly elevated progesterone from pregnancy. Now as a male, I don't like taking progesterone because it seems to have negative effects on my body but considering if we took progesterone with the suggested diet it might remove the stretch marks. I'm going to give it a shot next week.

Interesting. I grew fast as a child, but only developed stretch marks after my thyroid crashed in my 20s. I just went to take a picture of them for reference and the few I had on my right side are gone now and the couple I still have on my left side I struggled to find. They don’t even show up in the pics. The only thing I can think of that changed since I inspected them last (this past August) is my diet. It’s still fruit-based, but I’ve been having a lot more savory fruits like avocados, black olives, heirloom tomatoes and pickled cucumbers, some veggies—mung bean sprouts and tender greens, mainly iceberg lettuce—and animal protein coming strictly from eggs.

I think it’s worth a shot. I used Progest-E with the above diet, but my body responds poorly to progesterone supplementation when not supplementing thyroid so that may have been a factor.

@Jennifer Thank you again!

@Jennifer hey Jennifer, you aren’t eating dairy anymore? How many eggs do you eat for your daily protein? I’d be curious to hear about your diet
-
You’re welcome, @Serotoninskeptic.

Hi @Aniciete! It’s nice to see you here.
I haven’t had dairy since mid August, only because I stopped craving all forms except for raw milk and due to family obligations, I haven’t had time to make weekly trips to the farm, however, I’ll be able to starting next month. In the meantime, I’ve been averaging 4 eggs daily, mainly in the form of Cantonese-style omelettes (eggs, mung bean sprouts, onions, garlic, coconut aminos and salt) and the rest of my diet is predominantly fruit, mainly spiced cider (Fuji apples with cinnamon and vanilla bean) and ripe bananas in the form of flourless banana crêpes (bananas, eggs, vanilla bean and salt) and nice cream (bananas, coconut water and coconut cream)—I average 8 XL bananas daily. A typical day of eating for me is banana crêpes and cider for breakfast, an omelette, black mulberry juice and nice cream for lunch and for dinner, spaghetti squash fritters topped with avocado, a pickle, cider and nice cream. I feel good, but lately I’ve been craving milk with hot dogs and beef teriyaki so I’m looking forward to reintroducing them next month. -
@Jennifer consider rubbing progest E or some other progesterone product on the stretch marks as well for maximum coverage
-
Great suggestion, @risingfire. Thank you.
-
@Jennifer Thanks. Going to try to experiment tomorrow. Good luck to us both!

Good luck, @risingfire. I’m still working my way up to an optimal thyroid dose but once I do, I’ll be sure to try progesterone transdermally.
