Why are my cheeks so bloated??

[Deleted member 11999]

I typically have hollow cheeks or at least have shadows under my cheekbones but the past four days I have been bloated up like a balloon. I changed several things in the last two weeks:

• I started taking cold showers
• then I chewed falim for two days and that's when the bloating began
• I've been really limiting my sodium intake but it hasn't done anything really. Day 1 (five days ago?) it helped a ton but now I barely eat salt and I'm still subhuman levels of bloat.

I've stopped chewing and am now no longer going to take cold showers, other than that everything I do is the same as before when I was not bloated. My diet is typically extremely high in sodium and my face typically looks nice and lean, but the past four days I've been bloated like never before.

I thought I got bloated after I ate,but I'm starting to think the act of chewing bloats your face for a bit as I get a little bloated after chewing gum

I dont think that reducing salt will do anything for bloat management. I just read a post from a natural bodybuilder, and he said he even takes 5-10g of salt before shootings without any problems for bloat. Salt reduction is a myth.

Do you drink a lot of water?

Maybe you just weren't lean to begin with then, or just natural fluctuations in bloat lmao

It could be natural fluctuations but they usually last a day max, I'm theorizing that it's the showers artificially extending the falim pump by stimulating blood flow

That literally makes zero sense

I just got a cheat meal with lot of salt and sugar and my face is a total balloon

I have taken a video at the same place with same lightning 2 weeks ago and I looked way different, way leaner

it's annoying to get huge facial bloat when you're pretty low bf..
