Hi there,
Stretch Marks are total normal for anyone. They come from growing, which you're going to be doing a lot of at fourteen. As Maid Marian said, you can't lose stretch marks by losing weight!!
Pick up some Cocoa Butter next time you're out. It's great for your skin and it also reduces visible scars and stretch marks. Palmer's is the best kind of Cocoa Butter - I believe they even make some SPECIFICALLY for stretch marks!!
Stretch Marks are just a thing of life, sweetness. We all have 'em. I do (also on my hips). They fade after time.
Hope I helped, sweetness!

These are where your skin couldnt keep up with the speed that your body was growing and, well, got stretched. They're really common, Id say most girls have them somewhere. Try not to worry about them, they get a lot less noticable the older you get!! The best thing to do (I dont knwo if it actually helps, but its good for your skin anyways!!) is so moisturise after you shower.
Honestly theres nothing you can do, they fade as you get older, and loosing weight just makes them worse and more noticable, so dont go anorexic or anything silly!!
Hope this helps...!!!
