Blinking to focus weight loss to eye area?

I was looking in the mirror earlier and noticed something. I am losing weight all over my body but no visible change in my eye lids or eyebrow area.

My eyes are fat, they are pushing my eye lashes down so I look like a camel or if I was female I probably have eye lashes to die for.

Has anyone heard of an exercise to firm up or trim the eye area?






Now obviously I'm joking. A little bored and was wondering what crazy diet or exercise you have heard about that you wish actually worked.

    Hey, that was my 100th post! I used it on The Lion, how cool! B) Combine that with Prancersise and you'll be lookin' good in no time.

    I saw them on mfp probably early last year. Just figured I'd return the favor.

    My favorite was that stupid neck slimmer or whatever it was. My mother used to do it all the time.

    If spot reduction through exercise were possible, fat people would have a skinny face from all that chewing.

    You're adorable. :blush::)

    Love your sense of humor.

    When I was a kid, mom got this thing called and exerciser. It was a roped gadget, you put your feet and hands in stirrups and put yourself to work.

    The only thing that happened is I kept breaking the ropes.

    I can't see any of those videos at the moment so maybe you already covered this but I'm sure I have seen an exercise that involved laughing.

    Laugh like a nutter to get better and or something.


    Or baby yoga that involved swinging and throwing babies. If you did half of what was in the video you would get a knock on the door from child protection

    P.s. In what world could that possibly be a lion? I've watched a lot of nature shows and I've never seen one where the lion, stealthily approaching its prey, rolled its eyes heavenward and slammed its tongue down under its chin.

    A friend of mine who'd had gastric bypass noticed that, as she lost weight, more wrinkling was becoming visible in her face. She was doing these strange exaggerated grimaces to try and firm up the skin? the muscles underneath? I'm not even sure what the intended effect was. She did entertain us with her story of doing her face exercises diligently during a two-day road trip... she was sure she'd frightened many other drivers along the way.

    I remember seeing a chin strap thingy that looked kinda like a muzzle in an old 1920s catalogue. It was supposed to be worn at night to either prevent or cure saggy jowls.

    I work out my eyes 1-1.5 hours a day to spot-reduce there and although it's tough I've been seeing major results. You also need to make sure you're eating a surplus and plenty of protein to tone your eye muscles otherwise they'll just get skinny-fat. Good luck xoxo
