I've seen people who chew gum 20 minutes/day to get a stronger jaw.

Plus blowing balloons is surprisingly a good face workout. Google "facial twist exercise & lower lip exercise" to see more that also help burn face fat.

Ideally, though those who have super defined jaws have about 6-8% body fat & part of their look comes from genetics.

However, if you just want to burn off that double chin and have a more "fit" looking face then that starts to happen around 10% body fat.

Would getting down to about 10-12% help at all?

Don't over stress the face exercise because it can hold help up to a certain extent but if you keep up losing overall % and do a little of the face exercises here and there it should solve the problem. Good luck :D

WaterEx from GNC is a cheap and basic 2 week product.

I don't wanna look smaller but if I shed a few extra pounds I'll not only have a thinner face, I'll have something close to the "ottermode" physique, and while it's not my idea, it'd look better than this kinda skinnyfat but kinda muscular hybrid I'm at right now.


Is that the same as water (wet) fasting? Wouldn't surprise me as my carb intake is very high (400g or slightly less per day) as I'm bulking.

(Jul 7, 2018 01:28 PM)Motiv Wrote:  It’s close. I would keep water intake NORMAL. Don’t lower it, just try out WaterEx. Then lower your sodium intake. Make sure it as 2300mg MAXIMUM. And yes, if you are having higher carb intake, expect a little bloat. It’s most likely not fat on your face, but I haven’t seen pictures, so can’t know for sure.
