My face looks more round from gaining weight

It's interesting that one of the first places I noticed I was gaining weight was in my face because my cheeks and jawline now look more "round" than oval. Whenever I'm taking a picture I notice how my jawline doesn't look as defined anymore.
Is there anyone else who can relate? I can't wait to reach my goal weight just to see a less "puffy" version of my face.

    Yep, at my heaviest, my face was almost like a round ball

    YES! When I was my heaviest I honestly did not recognize myself.

    I have a strong jawline and it goes when I'm not training but age is a factor too

    I really liked the return of my jawline when I lost weight. :)

    Mine too!!! I notice it every picture urgh! but 10 pounds down (still 30 more to go) and i am noticing slowly a small change. I use to love my cheek bones but now my face is just round lol. Is definitly a common thing. I notice in other people too.
