AIBU to want to gain weight to save my face?

I was recently ill and lost about 4kg. I am back to health but it feels like I lost the weight in my face and I look basically like Skeletor. I have always found it hard to gain weight (partly ED, partly slim family genes).

I am back to my normal weight but not my face. I could try and stuff myself but I suspect it will all join my wobbly tummy and not my face and boobs as instructed.

Is there anything I can do?

The truth is: no. You either put on weight all over or not.

You could always put weight on, and wear a damn good corset.

Probably not.

Continue eating well and exercising and hope that our face fills out.

No, it’s much more important to be a healthy weight. In a choice between looks or health, health is always more important.

Has this happened to anyone else?
