Smiles..... Are yours changing as you lose the "face fat"?

This may be ignorant to some people but I honestly want to know. I was looking back at pictures from when I was at my smallest. Size 6-8 about 135-140 lbs. I noticed that my smile was alot bigger. Not because of being emotionally happy, but because my cheeks and lips were smaller. I say this because I had a recent picture taken and my biggest smile is nothing compared to then.
Did your smile get bigger once the extra "face" was gone?

    I've noticed it in a lot of the before and after pictures. Can't wait until I can notice it on me.

    The eyes are another thing that I have noticed. They seem much bigger when I was smaller. Quite depressing. :ohwell:

    I'm hoping that my eyes are more "noticeable" when I lose "face fat." Right now, when I smile, I have huge chipmunk cheeks and my eyes are all squinty. LOL

    Yup, mine has changed! Plus I think my nose looks bigger, but that's ok, haha.

    I know, not smiling in the progress pic on the right, but you get the point :) I feel way less moon-faced now

    I think my eyes look bigger since losing weight. I also smile a lot more now as I'm much happier now compared to before :smile:

    My entire face has changed; larger appearing eyes, CHEEKBONES!!!, an actual jawline, and yes, my smile does appear much wider now. Oh, and did I mention that I have cheekbones now? LOL
