I have it too - on my neck, both on the sides and behind; also my underarms, and upper thighs, smaller different patches on my knees and elbows - have had it for a long time.

The neck bit comes and goes depending on my IR. It got REALLY bad a couple of months ago. I've only been on met again for 3 weeks, and I've already seen an improvement.

I don't think I've ever lost enough weight to get the other patches to improve, but the neck one is the worst! I even had a co-worker friend notice it a couple of months ago (talk about embarassing).
