If you gain weight and people still find your face pretty, then you're REALLY attractive

I've experienced this personally. I've never been skinny, but at a BMI of 21.5 I had a very attractive face. I was often approached by strangers and given compliments about my face by people I didn't know or didn't know well when out. At a BMI of 27 I am now very much below average in appearance, my face lost all definition. I do look like a different person now that I'm overweight, and I am also treated completely differently too. People are just nicer to those that they perceive as attractive, without them even realising it I bet.

I've always said that most people can be attractive as long as you stay in shape, come off as intelligent, and carry yourself with confidence.

This video was more of a motivation video than most fat loss motivation videos out there.

Can you do an analysis of how straight hair vs wavy/curly hair suits a person's features? That'd be nice.

Can you talk about how stress, anxiety and mainly depression does to our face/beauty please? Cheers

You can say beauty is "only skin deep" or "in the eye of the beholder" but even if it's only subconsciously, someone's weight and attractiveness makes a significant difference in how we perceive and regard them as a person. Not by choice necessarily, but by instinct or human nature -- again, subconsciously. For better or worse, looks really do matter.

When I was in high school I weighed 115 pounds. I was always complimented on my facial structure. Fast forward to my 20s and i ballooned up to 170…I lost all my attractive features. I lost 20 pounds recently so I’m down to 150 now and my face looks soooooooo much better.

As an Asian, most of us need to have super low body fat in order for our facial bone structures to show. On the other hand, I see a lot of Caucasians with very contoured & slim-looking faces due to prominent bone structures even when they have relatively high body fat. Hence why you see these plus-sized models with decent-looking faces even when their bodies have like... 50% body fat

Age is a huge component in this discussion, though. Most of these examples are young people. A little extra weight for older people can be helpful to reduce wrinkles. Both my mother and my aunt lost a lot of weight recently and while they feel better in general it also aged their faces like 15 years and they feel very conflicted about it.

this is probably the GREATEST WEIGHT LOSS Video i ever watched . And it defintely motivated me to EXERCISE more, Lose Weight, Eat Healthy & Stay in Shape pretty much FOREVER

I noticed this at work. I worked at a gas station, and in the beginning I was about 8-10kg too heavy (according to my BMI) and the other girls would talk about how they got hit on. Never happened to me. Then I began working out, lost kg and suddenly it was almost a nightly occurrence. It was the only change I made.

The thing is you can have low body fat percentage and your face can still not look defined for some people.

Stay in shape as much as possible, NEVER let yourself go especially as you age.

I used to be in the 140lbs when I was going into high school. I’d say it was a perfect weight for my height at the time and you could definitely see my facial structure a lot better. Then I started taking antidepressants when I was in junior year and I was nearly 210lbs by the time I graduated high school. I’m finally back to 170lbs and working back down to 140lbs after 4 years of being graduated now. When I was at my heaviest I looked like a COMPLETELY different person. My face was incredible fat looking back at photos it’s almost like I wasn’t aware of how different my body was until I started losing the weight and looked back on the photos.

This is a little off topic, but your voice is so soothing and especially when you chuckled at 4:13 it was so attractive. Made me smile.

This thumbnail had me shook up for a minute, wow...

With some of these photos, it's not just weight loss, it's age/maturation. Showing someone when they were a teen or very young adult and then showing them years later is bound to reveal different facial results. Naturally, their face will look more mature, and that factors into attractiveness as well. Even when I was at my thinnest running track in high school, I much prefer my face now. I legit look better. I've fully grown into my face as a woman in her mid-30s and that along with maintaining a healthy body weight contributes to personal attractiveness.

Such a great job! Thank you, was interested😊

I lost almost 8 kg in 6 months. Controlled sugar intake, eat healthy and workout religiously, my bone structure showed up and the fat loss on my face made me even look younger. My body fat percentage now is at 8%. I love it. Now, working out and a healthy diet (paired with IF) are already part of my lifestyle.

Joaquin Pheonix looks more attractive after gaining more weight in my opinion, it all depends on the natural face shape of the person, people with naturally rounder facial bone structure usually look better when they have less body fat, and people with sharp defined bone structures look better when they gain more weight

I sadly have been overweight since childhood and have only started to lose weight properly at 22. I feel robbed of it but seriously emphasis never let yourself go because losing weight is really difficult

I actually think I look better with a fuller face. I have an angular face and when I get too skinny, I look awkward. I have big features on a small face. I think the rule in this video doesn't apply to all faces. It mostly applies to people with naturally rounder faces.

I’ve never been fat but I’ve definitely chubbed up during the pandemic, and now I have a chubby face. However the past year I’ve been slowly losing it, but now I’m really trying to apply myself as I desperately want to see change. Thank your for this video.

I believe a fuller face makes a person look a lot younger. A slimmer face looks slightly more mature

I always thought I had "beady" eyes until I lost 70 lbs. I have big round eyes just like my brother and my parents. My completely hooded eyelids are also now only partially hooded. I thought I had a masculine heavy jawline too, but it was just fat. Now I have a v shape jaw. It truly changes everything. My nose even looked wider at the bridge when I was fat.

This is very motivational and inspiring to lose weight and fasting safely. Thank you for making such a video so beautifully documented

I’ve been struggling with my weight since I was 14 y/o. As a result I developed an eating disorder and ended messing up my overall health. I’ve lost weight a few times along the way but since I was still suffering from my ED I would end up gaining that weight again. Now that I’m 19 , I’m finally recovering and after a year of recovery I’ve started to notice weight loss thanks to my new and healthy habits( thanks to my nutritionist). This is the first time I’m seeing a difference regarding my facial structure. It is enormously interesting how different a face can be due to weight gain or loss. No matter what , love yourselves and be healthy!

This is another wake-up call for me. I got fat very quickly when I started using my meds. Now I am developing another health problem, this one because of my weight. When I remember how beautiful I was once I had a healthy bodyweight I became teary eyed. I am now trying to educate myself on how to lose the weight in the healthy manner, to start a new healthier life.

This just makes weight loss even more exciting and more motivating! To be confident is to look your absolute best!

I'm currently learning Animation and Character Design and these videos are very helpful for me to get better at displaying the fatness of a character and all that stuff, so thanks a lot

Look at those glow ups! 👏

I've been overweight most of my life, until now that I'm drastically slimming down. But I never realised how overweight I really was because my face is oval shaped and people have always found me attractive. But now that I'm slimming down, I see that my features are popping out more and I'm even developing cheekbones. Even the other areas like my neck, etc just look better. It's crazy how much weight loss can impact even your face and it's so cool to see the difference in other people who are also slimming down.

i’m a girl but i have very big cheekbones and a very “masculine” face shape. i definitely looked the best when i was skinnier, my cheekbones looked very defined and because of my broad jaw i had this kind of “model look” i guess you could call it that. i’m currently trying to loose weight so i can look like that again :)

Love the precision ✨️

My face became prettier, softer and more feminine and youthful when I gained pregnancy weight. I'm realising now that it isn't just "pregnancy glow" but facial fat gain that improved my face.

4:12 Remember that when it comes to selfies, if the focal length of the camera is relatively large and they take the picture from afar (with extended arms), it will add to the effect of changed proportions compared to if the picture was taken with a smaller focal length and with the camera lens being closer to the face. I'm not sure if this is that big of a deal in this video, but it's something to keep in mind

For women, a little fat, especially after 40, fills out the face as it begins to wrinkle more deeply (hence the terrible choice, arse or face). In general, less body fat improves posture, which improves breathing, which also has an impact on the face.

A timely video! Thank you 😊

This is what I try to tell my 81-year-old mother. She's still so beautiful. She was a gorgeous teenager, a beauty in her 20s, 30s and 40s. The only time she lost her looks was when she went up to 180 pounds in her 50s. She lost the weight in her early 60s and regained her beauty. I tell her that of course she has wrinkles (who doesn't when they're 81!), but her facial shape hasn't changed, and she's still lovely. You see this with celebrities a lot. They look great when they're young, but put on fat around the face and it really (sometimes radically) changes their looks. Unfortunately for some people the opposite happens - their faces thin out. Look at Sarah Jessica Parker for example. She hasn't gained or lost a lot of weight, but her face just thinned-out as she got older. Same thing happened to me and it sucks! I looked nice in my late teens and 20s, but for some reason my face started thinning out in my 30s, despite the fact that I weighed the exact same amount.

Being attractive in a photo is also different from being attractive in person. Also a narrow face shape looks better with a bit more fat in my opinion.

been losing weight recently down about 16kg and excited for the face gains, literally can’t wait to meet my jawline convinced she doesn’t exist but we’ll see :]

You laughing when it was Derek's turn takes the cake! 🤣

This is so motivating 😅

I love that you included Derek and that you laughed when the photos popped up xD xD

It’s interesting because I think that diet and facial exercises are the most important factors aside from just general weight loss. Two years ago I lost a significant amount of weight and my face actually became more bloated because of the way I did it. I think it’s also valuable to note that softer, slightly rounder faces on women are far more attractive m. At times I admittedly have looked gaunt and masculine from losing too much weight.

Oh I was waiting for this one 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I really like the narrator's voice, it's smooth and relaxing, like a music track in a meditation center.

TW: ED (Anorexia Nervosa) I went to face change while losing weight in 2015. Wanting to take care of myself, I went from a normal 50 kg for my 1.59 height to just 35 kg. THE WORST TIME OF MY LIFE. My face? No longer attractive, I looked like someone had performed a really bad facelift, oh and my skin was yellowy. My body? Equally horrifying. Obviously, aside from all the other physical complications that came with my ED: cold all the time, foggy thinking, sore in all my bones, no periods, digestive problems (when sick, during recovery and even now 7 years later, when I never had them before A.N.). What this guy says Is true. START TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF BEING VERY CONSCIOUS OF WHY ARE YOU DOING IT FOR. Believe me, I started thinking that I wanted to do something for myself, like I never did, and before I noticed I was sick (I knew about the illness, but I didn't know how it appeared or why). Now, I'm more conscious that I always had trouble with the way I saw myself, and I understood what happened to me at that time. I don't regret it tho, I learned from my experience.

Physical looks are Perishable, Acceptance is key to happiness

This video encouraged me to continue my weight loss journey..thanks ♥️

Great vid. Very motivating!

The thumbnail edit of Harry makes him look at least 25 years older

0:48 One thing i noticed is that being skinny makes you look younger in the face...since i gained weight people always think im older than im.

Great video man.

Very true and interesting vid. Let's get that morning 🌄 jog going.

I became overweight at around 11 or 10 years old, im 25 now. Majority of my life, about 14 years I've been considered fat. Never got any attention from women and struggled with image/low self-esteem. Within the last year I lost alot of fat especially around my face and my jaw line and cheek bones are very prominent and face less rounded. Now I get compliments I never did before. Most recent came from a girl just straight up telling me, "You're very handsome, but you probably know that already". I said thanks but just thought to myself "If only you knew my story". 14 years of looking in the mirror and being displeased, it's tough for me to really see myself as attractive but I guess I am. Shout out to my parents.

I’ve always thought that a fatter/rounder face is very attractive in women. Which is why women want mid face fillers to give a more youthful look. And buccal fat removal ages a face heavily, but also makes a face appear a bit sickly. Which is why I suspect, amongst several other reasons, East Asians look younger a lot longer. They don’t traditionally have severe definition from cheek bone to buccal.

I’m one of those people with an unfortunate fat distribution. All the fat goes to my face and stomach. I was also fat growing up, when I lost weight I was treated very differently than when I was overweight. People paid attention to me and wanted to talk to me. When I was fat it was like I was pretty much not even a human, ESPECIALLY to straight men.

Really great video!

I wonder why seeing the skeletal structure is considered attractive? Jawline, cheekbones, waistline etc.

I recently lost 30 pounds and a lot of people have commented that they noticed the weight loss in my face. I agree that it was definitely the last place where fat came off but I'm glad it happened!

so cool and interesting. thank you !

Yay this is great for my body dysmorphia

I love these breakdowns personally I’ve lost 100 pounds and it always gets me when I see other people that have not a lot of weight it’s crazy how much of a difference it makes

I was very obese when the pandemic started. All I can see is "food, food, food, and food". Glad I overcome my addiction and started working out. And yes there's a huge change in your facial features and body when you start to diet and exercise and can never be more proud of myself. The key is self-discipline and focus. That's all.

You made a very good comparison in your presentation

Makes sense I’m 5’2 and used to be about 59kg, but got down to 46kg. My face shaped changed, my eyes look bigger, even my nose looks a bit different since the ratios are different.

With Chris Pratt I wasn't attracted to him when he was heavier. I was immediately attracted to him when he lost weight though. What a difference carrying weight does.

Some lucky people have a very small narrow face structure to where they should weigh more to avoid looking gaunt and emaciated . My face is naturally rounder so I don't have that predicament loll . Another factor to consider is that your ideal weight when your younger isn't necessarily going to look as optimal as you age .

Can you talk about lack of sleep and how it affects facial attractiveness? Thank you I love your vids.

Striking how different the face can look!

11:55 omg you brought this one pic. this was shared all over ED tumblr it was one of my favourites ouch i mean its kinda nice of him to tackle this stuff, guess he knows his audience(?)

I think the importance of getting lean is to see what your underlying bone structure is, at least before you consider surgery and things of that nature. So I agree with QOVES there, and also like the message that doing it for your health is better than aesthetics because if you do lose the weight and the aesthetic gains you made aren't as striking as you anticipated then it could lead to disappointment and depression.

Can you do a video on how the shape snd fullness of your eyebrows can also age you or make you look more youthful? I am obsessed with getting eyebrow implants for this reason alone.

Really relaxing voice btw 🥰

You should do a video on hairstyles in relation to face shape. Comparison attractiveness of hair from different points in history would also be interesting

that thumbnail.... y'all did Harry dirty lmao 😭💀 edit : great informative video as always :))

This motivates me even more for my diet. I have a relatively thin face for a man. When I put on fat, my face becomes completely oval and I don't really like myself on pictures anymore. Time to get to that 12% body fat and stay that way.

Thanks this explains a lot.

Very informative. The best video on this topic. Love it. I hope it encourages people to bring their weight to normal.

i feel that i have had similar experiences regarding this :,) i used to be very skinny naturally before puberty, but then afterward i gained some weight. around 11-14 i started gaining weight normally, but i also started struggling with bulimia and starving after overeating. it's something that i still somewhat struggle with today. it messed up my metabolism and body overall. at my "peak" or when i was first very fit, i did a lot of walking to and from school each day, running cross country for my school, etc. i ate 2-3 meals a day, mostly home cooked food. afterward i started to binge eat then starve so it did change my appearance quite a bit. a lot of yo-yo dieting, gaining and losing weight throughout the span of a few weeks, months, and years. my family also started to order takeout and fast food more often. nowadays i'm sort of chubby appearance wise, but i'm not skinny nor completely as fat as i used to be. i still feel that i don't look "as pretty" to some people because they saw me when i was skinny. i honestly just wish i hadn't started binging in the first place. i wish i could have continued eating normally lol i feel that i should also add ive always been short. even now i'm around 5'3" but i haven't been tall in my life. i feel that i could have also grown more during puberty if i hadn't starved myself so much. or maybe to do with the way my body distributes fat, i'm not exactly sure. i used to get treated a lot better when i was skinny, versus when i was fat. right now i think i'm at an average ish weight but still i notice the difference in my performance in sports / in general after gaining too much weight. i feel a bit miserable that i can't quite get back to how fit i was back when i was healthier. in my family & culture, in vietnamese culture at least we still have the ideal body as being very thin. my mom grew up in the 90s with the "heroin chic" body type, and i guess she never grew out of her habits from the time either. i've actually started running and walking more often again, and i feel a bit better however a lot of the fat is still around. particular around my face, thighs and stomach. :( it's something i'm really insecure over.

Wow, I found gem of a channel today.

I’ve been considering on working out to loose my face fat and it’s been bothering me when I see my fat face. I guess seeing this is definitely a sign

Yes. Facial fat can make or break a face. Harsh reality.

Yeah this is so cool after losing weight I noticed my face changing. Such a interesting and unexpected discovery. I actually did notice my skinny getting lighter when losing weight. That was weird too. So many things happen during weight loss that no one talks about

Thank you Qoves!

This is such excellent information I actually can't believe it's free

i've always been considered somewhat slim, and my face looked pretty proportionate with my body. due to health issues i was put on prednisone for a bit, and one of the side effects was a so called moonface, or bloated face. 9 months off the medicine and that puffiness, although definitely reduced, is still there, no matter how much i exercise or how much weight i loose. not only does it look disproportionate in comparison with my body but it effected my self esteem too. i can't say before i was incredibly handsome or anything, but it definitely effected whatever attractiveness i might have had. facial fat influences your overall looks incredibly much and i would've never noticed that before

so interesting! when i lost weight, it's very noticeable in my face first.

Each and everyone of us should try to be in a good weight n health before depart. That’s the best respect we can show to our body.

jake gyllenhall looks in prince of persia are just amazing

lucky people like ashley graham seem to have no negative facial impact from overall higher levels of adipose tissue

Finally, probably the most important video on the channel

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And some of these pictures, the before is no makeup/hair back and the after is highly contoured makeup/dramatic hair. That makes more of a difference, too. I like short, bald men with a dad bod and sexy calves. Not that I can’t appreciate other body types and find tall, lean, muscular men attractive, but I like what like. My hubby and I have been together for almost 20 years. Realistically, our bodies have changed over time and that’s ok. I still find my husband just as desirable now as I did when we first met and we were both slimmer. His face would be beautiful to me no matter what weight he is. Yes, we are both trying to get healthier, but it’s purely for disease and injury prevention.

thank you for inspiration

A QOVES-MPMD colab would be epic

Though 9-10% bf may be optimal for men, it should be noted that this is quite difficult and often depressing to try and maintain. Imo 12% is a good spot to hover around without sucking all enjoyment from your life.

I'm a server at a nice steakhouse. I lost 30 pounds and the tips and treatment from the customers are much better. Also look 10 years younger. Sad but true that people base your worth on looks.

One thing I wonder about is if there is a level where the opposite is true as well, as there is with most things. I am in quite a few weightloss/workout related forums online and sometimes people post before and afters of there weightloss and they look like they aged 10 years in 1 year of weightloss. Something about faces with very little fat makes people look incredibly old and worn out but I always feel like I am the only one who thinks so. Most comments always praise them on „glowing“ and looking so much more beautiful but sometimes the before just looks better to me…
