To not understand why I have new stretch marks

When I must have lost weight as I had barely eaten for two weeks.

Really common unfortunately. I never had stretch marks, that I could see, in pregnancy or when I put a little weight on. Losing weight means I’ve now got loads!

Excess skin after rapid massive weight loss might cause some stretching and tearing, but the majority of stretch marks are not actually caused when you lose the weight, but rather when you first put it on. They do however usually become more visible when you shed the pounds again

Starving yourself to lose weight is really not healthy. Your body needs fuel

The OP hasn't said why she hadn't eaten. She could have been ill. So it's a bit of a leap to conclude that it's for weight loss Hmm

OP, I hear good things about Bio-Oil for stretch marks.
