How to loss fat from face

Bodies vary in shape and size and so do faces. If a double chin or chubby cheeks make you self-conscious, slim them down by losing weight all over. You can't target your face fat for weight loss, but you can implement strategies to make you look and feel healthier and more confident.

Redefine Your Weight-Loss Goal

Your face stares back at you from the mirror every day. It may be your focus for fat loss, but your body has different ideas. Fat is stored all over your body in adipose cells. When you create a calorie deficit -- meaning you burn more calories than you consume -- your body releases some of this fat and converts it into usable energy. Where it takes the fat from is genetically set; you can't tell your body to use face fat first. Lose weight in general and, with time, some of it will come from your cheeks and chin.

If you have naturally round cheeks, you can't expect any diet or exercise to get you a supermodel-chiseled face. Your bone structure and the size of specific internal structures, such as your saliva glands, dictate the shape of your face. As you age, the supporting structure that keeps your face looking taut and perky also starts to fail. Features shift downward and your skin starts to sag a bit. Fat pockets may become evident in the chin and near the neck. You can't stop aging or alter genetics -- but a healthy diet and exercise may help minimize their effects.

Lose Overall Body Weight

If you're overweight, losing pounds will help your face thin out along with the rest of your body. A calorie deficit that involves eating fewer calories than you burn is key. Use an online calorie estimator to determine your daily calorie burn based on your age, gender, activity level and size. Then, create a 500- to 1,000-calorie deficit from this number to lose 1 to 2 pounds per week. More physical activity and eating smaller portions of healthy foods make this deficit possible.

Don't go overboard in cutting calories in hopes of slimming your face. Too low of a calorie intake -- below 1,200 for a woman or 1,800 for a man -- can stall your metabolism and lead to muscle loss. Such a low calorie intake can also lead to nutritional deficiencies and extreme hunger, so you end up giving up on your goals.

Eat for a Healthier-Looking Face

Vegetables, fruits, low-fat dairy, lean proteins and whole grains make up a quality diet that promotes a healthy-looking complexion and weight loss. For easy portion control, fill half your plate with leafy greens or other watery, fibrous vegetables such as kale, spinach, lettuce, green beans, broccoli and eggplant. Another quarter of your plate should contain whole grains, such as brown rice or barley. The final quarter of your plate consists of lean protein, such as eggs, white-meat chicken, fish or lean steak. Protein is particularly important when you're trying to lose overall fat because it helps you feel full at meals and discourages your body from burning muscle.

A ballooning face could also result from water retention. Cut back on excess sodium from processed and restaurant foods. Staying hydrated, so your body doesn't feel compelled to hold onto water, also helps.

Exercise to Lose Face Fat

Puffing your cheeks, pursing your lips and making surprised faces in the mirror won't melt away face fat. Focus on total-body cardiovascular exercise such as brisk walking or cycling that burns calories and helps you lose fat on your entire body. At least 250 minutes per week of moderate-intensity cardio helps you lose significant weight says the American College of Sports Medicine. If you choose to take the exercise outside, make sure you apply sunscreen to protect the skin on your face from sun damage, which prematurely ages you by breaking down the proteins that keep it strong and supple.

Also, add strength training to your routine as you're reducing calories to lose weight. Performing at least two total-body workouts per week helps preserve lean muscle and build a little more, which boosts your metabolism. A body with a greater amount of muscle mass is more efficient at burning calories; muscle demands more energy, even at rest, compared to fat. A squat may not seem to directly affect your face, but consistently doing these and other moves like pushups and pullups, helps lean out your whole body, including your face.

How to loss weight after pregnancy

When can I start to lose weight?

Your midwife probably won't recommend that you start to lose weight straight after you've given birth. Your body needs time to recover from having your baby. So you may want to wait until you've had your postnatal check with your GP before you think about losing weight. Your check will usually happen between six weeks and eight weeks after you've had your baby.

How can I lose weight safely?

Eat healthily, including plenty of fruit and vegetables in your meals. Drink water throughout the day to stay well hydrated and choose the right snacks. As well helping you lose weight at a healthy pace, it will also make sure you have the energy to adjust to life with your newborn. 

These tips will help you to achieve and maintain a healthy weight:

• Make time for breakfast in the morning.
• Eat at least five portions of fruit and vegetables a day.
• Include plenty of fibre-rich foods such as oats, beans, lentils, grains and seeds in your meals.
• Include starchy foods such as bread, rice and pasta (preferably wholegrain varieties for added fibre) in every meal.
• Go easy on fatty and sugary foods, takeaways, fast food, sweets, cakes, biscuits, pastries and fizzy drinks.
• Watch your portion sizes at mealtimes, and the number and type of snacks you eat between meals.

Combining healthy eating with exercise will be the most effective, because it helps you to lose fat instead of lean tissue. You will also improve your fitness levels. 

What exercise can I do?

Finding the time to fit exercise into your daily life, now that you have a newborn, can be tricky. But it's not impossible, as long as you make it a priority. 

You can start to do some gentle exercise such as walking, pelvic floor exercises and stretching, as soon as you feel up to it. However, you should wait six weeks or so, or until you feel that you've recovered from the birth, before taking up more strenuous exercise. 

Or you could exercise with your baby. Take your baby for walks in her pushchair, or try a pram-based exercise class. Find your nearest Buggyfit class here. Group classes are also a great way to meet other mums, and the fresh air may also help to lift your mood. 

How many calories do I need?

How many calories you need depends on your current weight, how active you are, and whether or not you are breastfeeding. 

It can be difficult to lose weight after having a baby, but try to lose the weight you gained during your pregnancy before you try for another baby. This is especially important if you were overweight or obese to begin with, or if you gained a lot of weight during your pregnancy. 

It may surprise you to know that even a small weight gain of one or two BMI units between pregnancies can increase the risk of complications in your next pregnancy. Complications include high blood pressure and gestational diabetes, as well as increasing your likelihood of giving birth to a big baby and having a stillbirth. 

If you were a healthy weight in your first pregnancy and gain at least two BMI units before your next pregnancy, your baby is at risk after the birth too. Maintaining a healthy weight, or losing weight if you are overweight, will reduce these risks. 

Losing the extra weight you've gained after you've had a baby may also help you to manage your weight in the longer term, and to keep the weight off. It will pay off in the long run in wider health terms, as keeping your weight under control also cuts your risk of type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and some cancers.

Does breastfeeding affect weight loss?

If you are breastfeeding, you should wait until you and your baby have got the hang of it before you start to lose weight. 

You’ll need slightly more calories than if you were formula feeding your baby. You’ll need around an extra 330 calories a day to have the energy to produce milk. However, some of these additional energy needs will be met from your body’s existing fat stores. 

This means that breastfeeding can help you to lose weight if you avoid taking in the extra calories required for breastfeeding, while eating healthily and staying active. Breastfeeding may even help you to keep your weight off in the longer term. 

It’s safe to lose weight when breastfeeding if you lose it gradually. Losing between 0.5kg and 1kg (1lb to 2lb) a week shouldn't affect the quality or supply of your milk, or your baby's growth. Losing weight gradually will also make it more likely to stay off in the long run.

When will my body be back to normal?

Give yourself time to get back in shape, and don't despair if the weight doesn't fall off immediately. Ignore stories of celebrities getting back into shape a few weeks after childbirth. Such quick weight loss is unrealistic for the average new mum, so take a more gradual approach. 

Bear in mind that your body may change shape after pregnancy, and returning to your exact pre-pregnancy weight or shape may be difficult. 

As long as you feel healthy and ready, as a rough guide, you should aim to return your pre-pregnancy weight by the time your baby is about six months old. If you're finding it takes longer than this, don't give yourself a hard time. Just set yourself a target of getting to the weight you want by your baby’s first birthday.

While it’s important to focus on your health it is also important not to set yourself unachievable goals. One study showed that only about four out of 10 mums had lost their pregnancy weight by the time their babies were six months. 

If you put on a lot of weight during your pregnancy, it will take longer to come off. If you'd like some help with losing weight, talk to your GP or health visitor about exercise or weight-management classes in your area. Joining a class can help to motivate you and you'll meet other people in the same situation as you.
