Disappearing Double Chin Pics Pleeez!

gregwhitley

You guys (and gals!) are amazing. I am down 20+ so far and haven't seen my neck/chin change much, although my wife says it has. I really hope I can get some of it gone soon, as I have sleep apnea and the more my neck and chin shrinks, the better!

The first pic is at 220 pounds and the second pic is at 171 pounds. That was the first time I saw no double chin.

Also, wanted to say it hasn't gone away on it's own, I've actually been doing an exercise I saw online to help. You just lift your chin to straighten your neck into as straight a line as you can. Then you act as if you are kissing the ceiling but kind of suck at the same time. Do this as often as you want and about 25 times each time. You will feel the tightening of the muscles in the floor of your mouth when you do the exercise (how you know it's working). I honestly saw a huge difference in my double chin just a week after starting this. Figured you'd rather hear of a way to help it than just knowing that it will eventually go away on it's own (which is also true).

Okay, every single time I try to add a photo using photobucket and the like, it always shows up super stretched out and large no matter how many times I shrink the actual picture itself. With that said, I'm going to just add direct links.



Before (278lbs)


After (170...ish. i don't even know anymore)

Don't despair! Remember - everyone loses weight in different places. For some, it's the face that makes it first noticeable, for others it's somewhere else. People didn't start noticing for me until I was almost 25lbs down and I didn't completely lose my double chin until I was almost 35lbs down...

As you are losing, try some facial exercise to tighten your muscles under your chin... I found that helpful

Be proud of what you've lost and when you wake up and notice the DC is gone - celebrate!!!

Mine is my profile pic, it does work, and you will start to see a change soon, taking photos is the best way to pick up on all the gradual changes!

I am not sure if this is going to work but here goes.

The bottom left pic I was 23; the other pic is last summer... I am 36.

Me at 269 (sorry it's not a straight on picture, but I was notorious for lifting the camera over my head to avoid double chin shots. This was candid)


Me at 205


And this was last week (202)

I also just realized my eyes are all different colors in each picture. That's odd!

I'm on the left prior to MFP.

Totally off topic and random, but I own both of those Woot! shirts.

Awesome! Since I lost weight I've taken in the hems so that I can still wear my old Woot shirts. That's been the saddest part of losing weight, not being able to rebuy certain clothes.
