1.No stretch marks

What are we, Barbie Dolls? Stretch marks are 100% normal, whether you’ve had kids or lost/gained weight at some point in your life. For many women, these warrior marks are a sign of growth and strength. Our body has undergone so many changes and allowed us to transform throughout the years. Whether it’s from losing or gaining weight, pregnancy, or just growing, these marks are a badge of honor that we should never be ashamed of.
