Round Face

Hey all,

i need some help. Recently, i feel like i have noticed my face become much more round and puffy, and i can't figure out why, and how to fix it.

I have a couple of thoughts, but none of them seem to be definite. I'll write them out, and let me know what you think:

  1. Started creatine - i began around a month ago, and have passed the loading face, so i no longer experience bloating around my stomach, but maybe water is being stored in my face? However, i also thought it could be to increased water i have been drinking (BUT I THOUGHT THAT SLIMMED YOUR FACE?!)

  2. Cortisol - i have begun going to the gym more consistently (4 times a week) early in the morning, and have been focusing on weights now for a month and a bit. i thought that maybe this could spike cortisol, but if anything, i have becomoe much more lean and slim from my shoulders down

  3. There is nothing i can pick out of my diet that would increase face swelling - i eat primarily wholefoods, with occasional sweets

  4. Drinking. I drunk for the first time in a month on the weekend, and yes i did notice a swollen face the morning after (as i always do), but this swelling hasn't seemed to go down since. I have completely flsuhed out my system in the past few days, and normally my face would have slimmed the second day (especially when i did use to drink a little more consistently), but after a few on the weekend, my face still remains puffy.

I would really like some help. I also want to make it known that i do have a relativly rounder face structure, with high cheekbones, but a wider jaw. So i understand that my face can't be super slim, but anything would help!
