Pretty face

So for as long as I could remember, like many big girls, I was the fat girl with the pretty face. And when I would start to lose weight here or there, it would first show up in my face and ppl would comment. Well, I wouldnt care. I mean who looks at themselves in the mirror at 234 lbs and thinks, "Gee, I wish I could lose weight so my face would look better."

Yeah, exactly right?

Well as I am losing more and have lost 70lbs, I have noticed even more changes in my face. I'm starting to see a thin person face. I mean a really thin person face and it's kinda freaking me out. I never realized how covered up my cheek bones were by all the blubber and although I still have a ways to go, I'm really starting to in vision what my face can and does look like without the fact covering it. Sometimes I'm happy about it and sometimes I'm like, who the heck is that?

It's weird, cuz I never ever though that my face would be a consideration in weight loss but now that my eyes seems bigger and things are changing shape, it's different. And looking at my id in my wallet, I'm almost to the point where I have to replace it because I look so different. I really thought I carried the weight well in the face and it's kinda bitter sweet and scary seeing certain things change even though I want the change.. ugh! Yes, long vent.

How about you guys and girls. Did you get to a point where you notice the face changes?

    its worse when you start to get more wrinkles because your bodyfat% is getting so low...
