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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
