I heard that if you're already skinny in body wise but have a chubby face, there's not much you can do about it? I thought you're suppose to lose all the facial fat by the time you turn to an adult? I'm 25 but my facial fat never diminished since I was a kid.....


My height is 5'9, 147 pounds and 14 percent body fat according to this machine. So I'm screwed basically or continue cardio to burn more fat?

Sounds like you are a girl.. but based on those #'s you are a guy.... you are skinny fat, 1% from 15 means you're just a teeeny bit in shape. Sounds like you have made progress so let us help you effectively in this one reply.

Start from 0. I don't care about your past or where you were before.

You're new starting place is My height is 5'9, 147 pounds and 14 percent body fat according to this machine.
* though you are better off getting 3 different people with Caliper experience to test your bodyfat.

Regardless. 15% in the bodybuilding community is not even close for guys who wants "hAwT AbZ" some people can get away with 8-10% others 12%, and others need to drop as low as 5-6% it varies by person - same with face fat. You are screwed basically until you either learn to flex bone, or drop some more body fat, or add muscle and drop more body fat% - you'll probably have to get to the same weight as a girl.

Unless your a competitor for the Bikini Universe Global Pageant, or a Fitness Model, Exercise Vixen. As a Hawtiez girl you shouldn't bE 147 lbs. oNlY noN fLaBBy hAwtIeZ tHaT dOnT JiGGlEz ..

ahem a girl that has built a hot physique etc will weigh more always. Since I can't tell other then make a deductive guess. We'll go with the most logical guess... ~ since a girl at that height and at that weight would not be 14% body fat and complain about face fat.

Lol, I'm a bit confused by your words. I'm a guy......


So i would have to get down to 6 percent body fat in order for my facial fat to go down?

[OldSpice]

the thing is, you cant lose body fat in just one area. Your whole body loses it at the same time.

[drago]

nope you can't do anythign if you are skinny already.. you can try to lose more weight!? might be dangerous

[可愛い]

liposuction of the face. im serious. celebs do it all the time. just have fat sucked out from ur cheek & jaw area. you'll get scarring behind the ears but thats it.

No idea, you'll have to find out where you are happy then get an accurate body-fat check if it matters though unless your a bodybuilder it won't, so just go find your happy place.

so as long I continue to do cardio, it will get slimmer?

[Sense91]

cut down on sugar! :] and eat healthier

LOL whenever i eat really healthy my face looks more slim

[smiile]

it will disappear with age (like my mother lost it around 35 years old i swear), but im sure with the right diet-cut down on salty food-it makes you bloated (esp on face-in my experience) & eat healthy, it can go away quicker.

[ScoobyooV]

Thanks for all the responses, BUT will continue doing CARDIO help at all at this point? Im around 14 percent body fat now. I can probably go down as much as 8 percent maybe? will that slim down the body fat? I'm a male 5'9 at around 147 pounds.

[Curly]

maybe you should laugh more, to exercise your face muscles LOL jk~ I have no idea :x

women have this tendency to "get it" like grasp how simple it is to look hot and get healthy later on then guys ~ last night a 40-45 year old asian woman of japanese or hawaiian chinese descent was working out with her mid 40's balding shaved head husband. despite the fact there were teenagers and twenty-somethings abound the gym ~ she captivated everyones attention because even tho she was out of shape (pooch and all) she was doing a damn fine job training exercising and looking hot doing it!

I thanked God that night I was not a female in that gym. I also was pretty amused by a older gentleman blatantly staring at her across the gym. I managed to compliment him on his superb fitness regiment ~

Use sprinter workouts, if you know any people in track and field that do sprinter training or have in the past, ask them to take you through a sprinter workout. Or football players : linebackers, runningbacks, wide recievers, slots, cornerbacks. Soccer players, anytype of explosive sport type of athlete.

I'd emphasize that for most of your cardio to protect the muscle you do have.

Thanks, so i guess i gotta get it down to 10 percent or maybe 8 percent to see a slimmer face then. Thanks for all your help.

[Ramen-C]

As someone already mentioned, get lipo in the face when you're older and still can't accept your face.
My mum is 40+ and still has her chubby cheeks and I'm heading towards that direction.

No worries ~ you'll notice people saying I exercise, eat right, sleep ~ but blah blah *problem area* everyone has their own problem area ~ that is the LAST to go ~ When you are faced with the LAST - that is much harder and requires more dedication and commitment then you applied before with other goals ~ If you can stick through it. You will find yourself happy and wondering... " what do I do next? " The best way is always set little goals afterwards ~ See you on the other side. You get through this.. it is that place where you can only dream and set goals ~ or just maintain and not fall back down
