Does anyone have any 'real' knowledge/facts to share RE: when you can start seeing results in your face due to weight-loss?

My double chin/full face is driving me crazy!

Ok..I'm in the 190's and of course it's the worst it has been.

In the 180s it was bad but not as full as it is now.

A while back I had reached a new low of 170.1 and it was still there but I didn't notice it as much 'face2face' in the mirror but it still showed up in pics.
*Grrrrr*

So, will I have to wait until I reach the 160's to get rid of somthing that bothers me so much?!

Are there exercises that can help?
I know you cannot *spot reduce problems areas* but I'll do anything to move this along!
:sifone:

Thanks for any help.

I think this is an impossible question to answer.

Ya, I know. You hate me. :p
 
You will probably ROFL when you read these!

A simple double chin exercise that you can do every day without any effort at all is just before you go to sleep at night. Lie on your side, and then as you put your head on the pillow, tilt your head back so that you stretch your neck.

Remember gently is the key and only at an angle that is comfortable. At no time should there be any discomfort. During the night your body will relax, but over a period of time those few minutes every night before you go to sleep will make a difference. Gradually you will find that tilting your head back will become a part of your sleep pattern.

Hardly a double chin exercise, but none the less very beneficial is the chin slap, yes the one you see the aging actress do in the movies! Just slap under your chin with the back of your hand, starting slowly and gently, then increasing speed. do this for a couple of minutes each time and two or three times a day.

Here are some more double chin exercise that you can do every day. These you can do at any time, but as with any exercise, a routine is preferable since you are less likely to forget, and you will make time for something you do every day.

Stand comfortably. Slowly raise your head from your chest and tilt it back as far as possible. Do not strain. Close your mouth tightly so that your feel the neck muscles stretch. Count to ten and relax, bring your head back to normal. Start by doing this exercise once or twice a day than gradually increase until you are doing ten a day.

Stand comfortable with your head at a natural angle. Open your mouth wide and put your tongue out as far as possible. Count to ten and then relax. Does this as many times as you comfortable can, again building to ten.

Stand comfortable with your head at a natural angle. Bring your lower lip- up as far as possible, count to ten and relax. Repeat ten times.

Stand comfortable with your head at a natural angle. Pull your chin upwards so you feel your muscles stretch. Count to ten and relax. Build to ten.

Sit upright, then tilt your head back as far as you can manage, now open and close your mouth several times feeling the muscle stretch each time.

These double chin exercises have better results if you do them regularly, twice a day if possible. However because they are so easy, you can slot the odd extra exercise in at any time. Waiting for the kettle to boil or the printer to finish printing, these are good opportunities to slip in a couple of quick double chin exercises.
 
While I think they're funny and doubt they'll do anything, if it makes you feel better or if it seems to help you, don't let me stop you.

I'm not sure how any of them affect the fat on your chin, is all? In most of them you're stretching out various muscles by tilting or turning your head and that has nothing to do with fat.
 
You're welcome.

Shit, maybe you should try them anyhow. It's not like they're going to hurt you. Placebo can be an extremely powerful influence!
 
OK..We'll use me as the test subject.
HaHaHaHaHa!

Watch 'em end up working..!

:rofl:

I'll start them this evening before I hop on the exercise bike.

;)

I'll post updates here..

This will be funny/fun!
 
Just make sure they're not taking precedent over things we actually know work.

Ya know, the stuff that has some physiological logic.
 
Wouldn't those help the muscles in your face though? Like when you set up a bunch of pictures side by side of someone who has aged and their face looks...stretched down almost. Wouldn't that at least help out with slowing that sort of thing down?
