Can you get stretch marks from losing weight?

[Sputnik]

Someone please tell me you can. I noticed some at the very tops of my thighs, just hoping they're not caused by adding muscle though exercising.

from googling, yes you can get stretch marks after both weight loss and weight gain

Thanks for Googling for me, hadn't thought of that
Hope that's it then, I don't have scales around ATM so not sure if I've lost weight or not.

yes u can!
I have them on the tops of my thighs/hips because this where I carry any excess weight!

Yes I certainly have excess weight there!
Glad I'm not alone (well not glad you have stretch marks Puppy, obv.) but you know what I mean.

I got this from losing water retention in my thighs after pregnancy... Not a mark on my belly and these from WATER
