Face changes as we lose weight (Pic)



Recommended Posts

After studying before and after face pictures of so many other people, I secretly wondered, if after losing the weight if I would feel like my nose was too big or my eyes would be enormormous, or suddenly I would have massive wrinkles where fat once was. So I was pleasantly surprised with my little comparison. More evidence that when you gain weight it affects every part of your body!! Amazing isn't it?

WOW! I agree with above post! You look so much younger. Both pics are beautiful, and you are looking fantastic!!! I noticed my shoes are more comfortable and, of course, walking in heels is much easier! I took for granted that, as you say, weight affects every part of our bodies, and that means our tootsies too! :-) I got this great new pair of heels to Celebrate reaching onederland. I'm going to post a pic soon! Congratulations on your wonderful loss. You look awesome!!!!!

Thank you everyone for the sweet comments...I was so used to seeing my face puffed up by fat, I wasn't sure what was underneath. :confused_smile:

Hey to you, Well, I've lost about 89lbs since Jan which includes my dr supervised stuff and my hubby(who is a month behind me with surgery dates) is at 92lbs....so on our 14th anniversary we celebrated by sharing fahitas and trying on jeans! I haven't worn jeans in 25yrs! They didn't look great yet but I got them on! I seem to deal with stalls some, he doesn't ever! NOT FAIR!!! Sometimes I get sick of Protein and want to eat chips...which I do at times! But I don't want to treat this as a law or something...I just keep on trucking! You look great.. and your right my face is changing too...it's so weird! Keep up the good work! Tracy w.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
