Dude chill and relax, most of my skin can stretch at least I dunno say 2 inches my waist is insane, I have a really small waist and I can pull like I dunno let's call it 15cm squared or skin ^^
I ain't fat and didn't used to be I dunno what it is. I get called stretch armstrong aswell ^^
I just keep thinking "well if I'm to give birth I shan't have stretch marks" xD
Seriously don't worry about it and if you are worried check out with your GP or something. They would probably just reassure these facts but aye be happy with your elasticity ^^

Oh aye there is one downside, or so my friends say. They say as an old person if I keep stretching it I will get saggy skin. Tbh I see that as a positive factor I could smuggle things into my retiring home ^^

Stretch Armstrong. Heh.

It could be Ehlers-Danlos syndrome... (or I could be an over enthusiastic medical student 
) It's a disease characterised by stretchy skin (among other things) due to a collagen defect. Maybe google it and ask your doctor if you're concerned?

ye we al know that..but this is abnormal stretchin...wouldnt be called stretch armstrong for no reason

An inch of elasticity is perfectly normal. Everyone who says it isn't is either wrong or just humouring the OP.
OP - What might help is if you stop stretching it often enough for people to give you a nickname based on it.
