Just not photogenic, or too chubby?!
Question:
Just not photogenic, or too chubby?
I am 5' 8" and I weigh approximately 145 lbs. I'm a size 6 and reasonably toned and happy with my body. I don't eat either too too healthily nor too un-healthily, and I am moderately active (I walk a good deal, take krav maga once a week and go to the gym a couple days a week).
Given that this all seems very healthy and normal, I am confused about why my face looks so chubby in every picture taken of me. It's like I have baby fat, plus unusually swollen cheeks. My cheekbones are not at all visible and I have a mild double chin. What gives!? Do I need to be extra-skinny to have a normal-looking face, or should I get liposuction on my face, or what!?

Answers:
My face did not get thinner until I lost weight to a certain point. The rest of me was okay but my face was the last to get thinner. Then the more I lost, the thinner it got. But then it got too gaunt looking. So nobody wants that.
Your weight sounds just fine, anyway. Are you sure your perception of yourself is accurate?
