I have always had chubby cheeks, but the top picture is the day I started back on this journey. I had just gotten done with a week of steroids so I don't know if they had anything to do with it, I think I was just super fat. Anyways, I am down 50lbs since then. I can see a difference. (Thank the Lord!) I still have a ways to go, but at least I can see some cheekbones coming back!

(I know I spelled Steroids wrong on the pic)

    Steroids have a tendency to balloon you up! I had a friend who was on them for a few months for medical issues and she gained about 70 pounds (we're talking like 6 months).

    you're looking great!!

    I've always had Chipmunk chops and although the weight is slowly shifting the chops are still there!

    You've done so well :)

    You are gorgeous! I think it is the high cheekbones! If you have high cheekbones and carry any extra weight, it is going to show in your face. Think of Tiffany Amber Thiessen. Gorgeous, tiny little thing, but because she has high cheekbones, she can look a little chunky in her face from time to time.

    I cannot WAIT I feel comfortable enough to smile in my photos again. right now I still feel like when I smile I look fatter. And thank you everyone for the compliments.
