i hate my face


Quote  |  Reply
I started alot of disordered eating crap this year, all because I've felt my face was too fat. I have been in amazing shape...but I hate my face. So I lost 30 pounds since going to college, mostly muscle, but my face has significantly shrunk. I want to gain weight, but i hate my face getting bigger. When I binge eat (10,000 cals a day sometimes), I gain weight, and not in muscle mass, but in pure fat. And it goes to my face.

Can anyone relate?? What do I do? Do I just have to accept that my face isn't skinny as a model's?

I've noticed that binging makes my face chubbier, too! I think the best thing to do is stop binging. Easier said than done, I know, but there are ways.

Your face is your own. It doesn't have to look like an anorexic model's, and if you have a round or square shaped face you will notice the difference more. Try looking at some movie-stars (not anorexic ones) and musicians with your face shape. It may be a more realistic comparison. Plus, a lot of the really skinny models have had their back molars removed to give their cheeks that more hollowed-out look. You don't want that, do you?

you definitely need to stop binging! I think that 'ainedb' is right about finding out more about 'your' face shape. The right haircut will do WONDERS for framing your face perfectly. Don't look to food for the answer, look to makeup and hairstyles. Like me, I havea really round and puffy face. Therefore, I hardly ever put my hair up in a ponytail or bun, b/c it just accentuates the 'bigness' of my face. I like to wear my hair down and with bangs, to frame my face best!
