Loss of the dreaded double-chin...

edited September 2024 in Success Stories
Despite my family telling me, I've not really noticed any weight lost over the past year or so. Today I was flicking through some old photos and found some truly horrible ones of my school formal. I began to notice the difference in my face - particularly, my flabby chin!

It's disappearing!!!! :happy:

I've lost about 35 lbs so far, and I finally feel like it's noticeable. I've also noticed that as my face gets less flabby, my family nose (thanks for that Dad!) is much more prominent.. I'll take that in a trade-off any day :)

ahhh, too big. hopefully it works now!

    What a difference - well done you!

    I think that's a good idea to try actually and I'll get Mr Slinxy to take some pictures of my "chins" along the way. :happy:

    Woo! Double chins are a curse in my family so that has been a huge motivator for me (seeing it go away the more weight I lose!).
    Thanks for sharing! Congratulations and great job on your weight loss!

    Good job! My guess is that's one of the "last" things that go... or not?
    Also; on a side note, I posted pics a while ago, and they were HUGE! I noticed on your initial post that you mentioned you shrunk yours to fit the page better. How did you do that? Could you walk me thru it PLEASE?!

    I made the picture in Microsoft Paint. I just hit "Resize" in the menu bar, and brought it down to about 60% its original size, by typing 60 into the box required. I repeated that and reuploaded until it fit in the post!

    Yahy! Such a great thing to notice the changes. Keep up the great work.

    I know my face has slimmed too since my profile pic was taken.
