Goal... is it all its cracked up to be... Im that whiney *****....

Jenn,

I'm 56 years old, and had been SMO for 30 years. My face looked young. Now that I've lost 120 pounds, I have wrinkles, and saggy baggy skin. And I'm thrilled to have it.

What I would do, is to wait a bit longer, and see how things settle. I've noticed my face changing, my body changing, even with my weight not changing these days (double darn it). As we age, we have to relearn who we are, and who we will become ~~~ add huge weight loss to that, and it's pretty confusing to look in the mirror at yourself. Give yourself a while to get used to who is looking back at ya.

I'm glad that I am moving and don't have to deal with the nonsense of people telling me that I am losing too much weight.

New people that you meet won't say that your face is too skinny because it isn't.  And why the hell would someone tell you that you look older?!  That's just rude. 

Hey Jenn, I think your face has been fab in every pic you've posted since I joined in June- And believe me I've looked at them.  I was worried about the aging effects of weight loss and have really studied the face pics form all of the before and afters.  No offence to the other WLS folks but I think sleevers look best after weight loss.  If we are voting, I vote for 135 you.  Your face at 135 seems to be the way it was meant to be.  Your bone structure is just great and I feel like you need some time to get used to seeing it.  I'm not sure how tall you are.  I'm almost 5'2" and I think my goal will be between 130 and 135.  I would also vote no on the botox and restyline.  What you have naturally is great.  sometimes the fillers and botox combine in an unnatural and scary way.  Give yourself 10 or 5 years, then think about it again.  Looking forward to seeing you guys on Saturday!

OMG! Reality check time. I get it really, I do, but girl, you are a fine looking woman. To me your face looks better at the lower weight. I like seeing your jawline a little bit of the cheekbone and the line of the brow. Your thinner face also matches your body. Also, you look YOUNGER with the thinner face. Anyhow, that's my opinion.

I hate that crap when people start telling you you look too thin, you need to gain back a few, etc.... I'm already getting that about my face, "You can't afford to lose any more from your face - think of your age..." F*** that sh**! I still want to get rid of the damn spare tire around my middle and I loathe, hate, detest my back fat and it has to go. I didn't do WLS to stay overweight because people can't hang with my changes.

To be honest.........I didn't notice any difference in your face at the higher weight to the lower weight. I feel your pain though! I have always looked a lot youner then I am ( a bit older then you, quite a bit actually) but since weightloss I look like hell. I look in the mirror all the time and am so unhappy with what I see. I am all for a face lift in the future! But for now I have an appointment next week for some botox and then fillers!!!!!!!!!  Do what makes you happy!

I got nothing for your issue... but holy **** do I miss your f bomb filled posts. Where have you been? Why have you been so absent?!?!?! Some of us don't dig that so much... just sayin..

She has been hangin out with me in church and children's hospitals.......practicing her f bomb skillz...lots of shocked looks from blue haired old ladies!  ha ha ha !

Color me jealous... what do I have to do to get in on that?

You are just plain f*ckin beautiful. That's all..
