Cocoa butter is about the only thing you can do. Just continue to work out and if they are light colored maybe lay in the tanning bed or the sun to make them blend in with your skin. With light skin people I know its easier for them to get rid of. I take it you have dark skin?

They don’t go away, they fade.
Coco butter is the best thing to lighten them. If you start gaining weight or get pregnant again I would suggest for you to start using it before you get more. Coco butter prevents them as well as lightening them!
It’s really up to your skin how long it will take. I would say just keep doing it till you think they are faded enough or you get tired of it. It’s always good to at least put it on before bed or out of the shower even if you arn’t wanting to get rid of anything because coco butter is good for your skin!

There is still no scientific evidence that a stretch mark remover cream can get rid of stretch marks forever. But some creams can greatly improve the appearance of your stretch marks and speed up fading them.

2: TriLASTIN-SR

Both can be used during or after pregnancy and have money-back guarantees.

There is a lot of stretch mark treatment available on the market these days. Some treatments are more effective in fading or even eliminating stretch marks, but the success of the treatment depends on a few different things. First of all is the color and age of the stretch marks. If they have faded to a flesh color they are much harder to heal. Second of all, ethnicity and heredity play a role in which creams, oils and other products or equipment will succeed in healing stretch marks.
The cheapest stretch mark treatment available is creams made especially for stretch marks. The most effective creams contain ingredients such as cocoa butter, lanolin and wheat germ oil. These creams actually heal and rebuild the damaged skin. While they may not be able to completely eliminate stretch marks, they may at least make the stretch marks fade to a barely visible scar.
