If you have lost a lot of weight or know someone that has, do they look older before the weight lose or...

[lolli]

Younger? Just wondered what the majority thought.cause I need to drop some pounds. I keep getting a lot of people thinking I'm in my early twenties lately. That's fine by me. Wish I was...

Anyways, younger or older?

People look younger after they lose a lot of weight

People look older after they lose a lot of weight

They look the same age to me

Usually fat people's face ages better.

But well that's true for many other things. When I let my beard grow, I'm often told I look 10 years older.

My ex girlfriend has now started a diet. She lost lots of weight and it makes her look sexier: willpower.

Anyway, when you've dropped the pounds, make sure people know about it. There are enough occasions in everyday life to drop that thing in the convo. You'll get respect for this.

I just want to see the poll result but I don't want to ruin them by clicking randomly.

I usually look two to three years younger and I would like to loose 20lbs and I would also like to know if it would change how old I look.

It's a very individual thing, so I can only speak for my own body. When I was a lot chubbier than now, I actually did look kinda older. But I have seen other girls losing quite some weight and they looked even a little older afterward. But that doesn't mean they didn't look better with less weight. Like I said, it's all individual.

Obviously if your face is really chubby your skin will look all plumped up and you'll look younger.

More fat to cover = skin need to strectch a bit more=less wrinkles

Plus the so-called adults features like high cheek bones etc are more proeminently noticeable when you're skinny.

I know a guy who looks way younger when he loses weight

[-ananyme]

cause guys faces aren't supposed to look like ours, what we consider to be manly is a strong jaw line, when guys are skinny they loose their large face.

[lolli]

Yes. I know. But this guy looks younger with his skinny face which is also when his jaw line gets stronger.

Having a very thin face when you get older makes you look even older. Having extra weight can go both ways. Two people Gabrielle Union and hayden panettiere who don't have thin faces look really youthful.

I have lost 63 lbs and have been told I look 5 years younger but with that I also have done a makeover on myself to, different hair style cloths fit better and I keep my self looking better every day
