Big Head

I know this may seem like a bizzare question to some but I really am curious about this. I've seen other people who have had gastric bypass and once they lose all their weight, they're head looks oversized for their body. That was one of my fears when I was going into this thing. Is this just a perception based on how we're used to seeing them when they're overweight or do they lose so much weight that it gives the oversize appearance?

This really isn't meant to be a joke, I just don't want to look like a bobble head doll.

I see myself that way in pictures now. I feel like my head isn't proportionate to my body anymore. Not sure how long it will take for that feeling to go away.
