Dont Recognize Myself



Recommended Posts

Never thought this would happen, but since I lost weight and am close to goal, my face has changed very drastically. I always has a "thin" face even when I was at 40 BMI, but now at 30 BMI it's very different from I ever remember looking. Even when I weighed this same weight before. I feel in a way I am reluctant to lose more because I don't like my face as much... Anyone feel the same way?

I wish this was the case for me... I can't see any difference in my face or body for that matter. I take it that it is changing from input from my husband. Good luck.

Hm. I am not there yet, I think I am the opposite, when i was about 220 my face was fine and not fat, once I gained a few more pounds it was like all of a sudden I had the double chin from hell. I can hide it well in pictures, but the girl in the pictures isn't the girl I see in the mirror. I hope you find peace with your face, it looks beautiful to me from your picture, maybe a little bit of change would help you appreciate it more. A different hair cut? New make up?

It's probably not as thin as you think it is. You are so used to seeing a different you that you aren't used to it yet. I lose fast in my face too and am also worried it will make me less attractive in the face department. I say give it some time, see if you adjust.

The first place people notice when I lose weight is my face. I can lose 100 lbs and they say"Oh you've lost weight. I can see it in your face." Have you e er seen 100lbs on a face?!?

Thanks to all for the replies. I originally posted back in May. After another 10 lbs it's much better

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
