Stupid Question for the Losers...

[peppercma 12]

Did you eyelids loose weight? I did warn you this was a stupid question! I ask because I like to wear & experiment with eyeshadow, but I have a pretty heavy eyelid so you can't see most of the "work" I do. So I was wondering if the fat on my eyelids would go away so that I could have a better palette for my eyeshadow.

interesting question, but definately not stupid. . . i've always have had puffy/heavy eyelids, now i've lost 150 lbs and still have heavy/puffy eyelids. . i still do my makeup as i would encourage you to. . . as you lose weight, you'll see difference and can adjust then. . . sorry i didn't help much. . . good luck!

I've noticed that my entire face, including the area around my eyes, is thinner and less puffy--maybe it's genetic or something. I also eat relatively salty foods frequently, but I try to get in some extra Water when I do.... I also love playing with makeup (rediscovered after decades of "just getting by") and have enjoyed learning how to really do it right in the last few months. It's even more fun now that I can actually use contours and highlighters and they don't look silly on my round, fat face (cause it isn't any more!).

Have fun, and I hope it works out.

Funny you would ask this question because this morning I was putting on eyeshadow and I have so much darn skin on my upper eye lid that it folds to were you dont see my eye shadow at all.......... cannot wait for an eye lift or something to be done, but got to lose more weight yet... I have never had plastic surgery before, but I will be looking into it once I am at goal weight...

Yep! We (everyone that is, the human race -- not just overweight people lol) have fat pads in our upper and lower eyelids, and you won't believe how much bigger your eyes will look in pics further down the road. The only possible negative about losing some of it is that you might look a little darker under the eyes, but hey--that's what makeup's for, right?
