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 have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
