    Default Tonalin Side Effects?

    I have been taking tonalin for about a month now and not only have I not seen any change in my body, but I have developed stretch marks on the inside of my arm. I know I am very very prone to stretch marks and have them on inner thighs, above butt, hips, only used to have a few on my arm...i used to weigh like 40 lbs heavier...i guess my skin elasticity sucks ass . Anyways...my diet has been very very clean in the last month so it's not like I gained a ton of weight. I'm completely freaked out and pissed and crying because this sucks and now i have a TON of them on the insude of my arm, and I know how stretch marks do not go away. I'm very pale but I tan (self tanner) and it just brings them out and they look UGLY. So nothing I have done is different except this so someone please tell me why!

    I'm not a scientist, but I don't think the Tonalin has caused your stretch marks.

    Have you been lifting weights? Doing a lot of pole tricks? Anything that would cause the skin in that area to stretch?

    I have been lifting weights but no more than before, and my arm looks pretty much the same in terms of fat/muscle. Actually for the past 2 weeks I have been doing nothing but laying in bed because i've been sick and they seemed to magically appear over night.

    Have you lost weight? I know that sometimes stretch marks don't seem to appear until you lose the weight that caused them. (Or at least, they're not noticeable until then). I don't think Tonalin is causing them, I don't see how it could.
    I believe you Dottie and you have my support

    ^ That really sucks.

    I agree though, I wouldn't think the tonalin could cause the stretch marks. CLA is found in food, so it's not like it's unnatural.
    Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

    I would agree in saying that it wouldn't cause the stretch marks. However, it may have caused weight loss and therefore the stretch marks are now noticable. Have you tried using anything for your skin elasticity to bounce back. Milk and Honey or Vitamin E. Some people says it helps, others say it doesn't. There are lots of threads in BB with home made remedies on how to banish stretchmarks. I don't have time to look for them now, but I'd take a look if I were you.
    There was one I particularly remember. It used aloe, baby oil, vitamin E and apricot scrub. There was a monthly schedule to follow. Maybe Cam found it. I don't remember though.
