My face looks so different!

Hi everyone! I just looked at my 8 month pictures (posted on my profile) and my face looks so different! I don't like it. When I look in the mirror I feel like I look like I've aged in my face. It's not round and full anymore. Which is fine. But I think the fullness was hiding some wrinkles! Now I feel like I look "different." I don't even know how to explain it! It's not even that there are huge wrinkles; I just think it looks more gaunt or something. Has anyone else noticed this in their faces? Deanna

HOLY CRAP! YOU LOOK AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously - the new pics are amazing!!!!! I know what you mean about feeling like you look older though. My old pudgy face looked much more youthful - now I notice my dark circles under my eyes and all the little wrinkles so much more. I'll take it though! My MIL always said that no ones every guesses how old she is. She said that's the "adventage" of being overweight - not many wrinkles can show when your face is all full of fluff. I'll give up that advantage I think - I get to live longer now - and get many more wrinkles then I would have otherwise!!

I think you look positively amazing. I think actually it may be our brains adjusting to what we see in the mirror. Yes I have noticed the same thing about my face too. I have had close friends tell me that I should stop losing weight because my face is looking to thin. I tell them I still have a little bit left to lose and hopefully it wont come from my face...want to lose more in my belly and these big ole thighs.

Oh My!!!! Deanna - you look amazing - a transformed woman! I know a bit of what you mean about the face. I'm seeing more wrinkles now that they are not plumped up - which I don't like and feel I'm looking older. I was hoping that I would look younger after loosing weight. I think it is just us having to get used to the new us and that others see differetnly to us. And I see that you have got below 180 - congratulations! Only a few more pounds to go to goal...great

You look great, but I know what you mean. Not only am I looking a bit "drawn", but I have not been this small since I was in my twenties... and for some unknown reason I just don't look the same as I did then, lol.

WOW Deanna!! You look so amazing, great pics!! I haven't really noticed too much in my face, I think I'm too preoccupied with all this skin on my belly to notice my face yet... lol But for what it's worth, I think you look beautiful! Hugs, Bobbie
