I'm 18 and my baby fat never left. I have chubby cheeks and a droop in the area next to my chin on both sides. Also a slight double chin. Freshamn year of highschool I lost some weight and it was noticeable on my face but minimal and after that it never progressed. Was that it? I plan on loosing more body fat but will anything change? If I get it now and still follow through with my journey, will my face sag or something? Should I loose as much as I can and see how I look then revisit the idea?
