Can losing weight make you look younger because I'm currently overweight and fat for my age

I currently weigh 230 lbs and looking to drop it down to 130 lbs

It can work both ways (as can gaining!)

If you lose too much or too fast you could look withered or unwell. Loose skin could be a problem too.

I have been mistaken for older before as I have a typical middle-aged mom bod 😅

@emele I've noticed that when I've been doing a lot of good stuffing and have a nice bloated belly, it definitely looks more full and youthful than when it's empty and flabby. Plump=youthful, saggy=old, regardless of how everything else looks, apparently.

@piggo88 Yeah, I get that. I have seen female gainers that is true for too. I don't think I look older, definitely not in my face, maybe I just remember the comments that thought I was older more because they were am exception.
