Do we have fat on our nose?



Recommended Posts

I’ve lost 50 lbs and lately my eyeglasses keep slipping off my nose. I realize this is kind of a dumb question. But I don’t have the glasses with “nose pieces” that might go awry and not fit right. My glasses are plain with no little pieces. So why are they falling off my face now? I know my feet thinned out etc, I guess our noses can too? Need to go get new eyeglasses. Never knew this was a thing.

The nose is a common site for edema. If you're in better shape, and eating healthier, it will be less likely to be puffy. (even if it wasn't that perceptibly puffy in the past)

This is great news for me because I've noticed my nose getting puffier as I got heavier. I secretly hoped that it would be less puffy as I lose weight. Good info.

So funny! I’m glad I asked. I can’t bend over without them slipping.

i lie the shoe thing too. I don’t have as much problem finding shoes that fit. I know one foot was bigger than the other, but whatever it was, is less so now. Again, probably edema lessened.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
