The really cool brow arch/lift thing seemed to start fading right at 2mo.. :(  I really liked that arch dammit,  nd w/o it I look perpetually worried or annoyed!

I started being able to make a scowly face at almost 3mo. I'm going tomorrow (Groupon too!) for another 25 units. I love it, but man.. it's a cash-suck if you intend to keep it up!

 I've always thought you were one of the most beautiful people on the boards! No offense to anyone else, lol! You have been such an inspiration and I think you look beautiful at both sizes but if I had to choose, I love your look right now! You look so much happier and confidant!

Hey Jen

You look great and your face looks great as well. I'm 28 pounds away from.my goal and my face is so small but I can't take my body with these extra pounds so I'm gonna sidw with keeping your current weight, if you want to try some conservative filler that's fine I will too but you look great

Your face looks fab at 135 - you can really see the cheek bone definition.  I don't think you look older - you look young, healthy and glowing.  However - nothing anyone says will make one bit of difference if don't see it also.  How long have you been at 135?  Maybe you just need a little time to get used to it...

Jen, everyone has said anything that I might say, but you do look great. I am about 19 months out and have been at a stable weight for almost 1 yr. During the past several months, I have noticed some weight distribution and my jowls don't look as loose as they did last year. I still need work, but they don't look as bad. The rapid weight loss is hard on our bodies and it takes time for our bodies to readjust. Give yourself some time to adjust to your new body and allow things to settle in or out. I wouldn't intentionally gain any weight. The yo-yo effect is also hard on our bodies and can depress our metabolisms even more. You may naturally put on a few pounds or not, but don't try to gain. I don't know how tall you are, but your weight seems really good.

As far as the comments that you look too thin, people just aren't used to seeing you at a lower weight. When I received those comments, I didn't take them to heart, because I knew where I needed to be for my health and well-being. People don't say that anymore, because they have become used to the new "me."

 Your very beautiful.  I don't see a thing wrong with you.  I really love your fashion sense and personality too.  Don't pay any attention to those people saying you look too thin.

Hey Jen I think you are smoking hot, but I had some filler in those smile lines and in the lips combined with some Botox to smooth out my forehead and everyone thinks I look 5 yrs younger. So don't gain weight, just pump up with restylene! From one vain chick to another!

 I feel the same way!  I saw a pic of me at my highest weight and my first thought was, "how cute is my face!"
