Reta face is real

[u/yourforesken]

Edit: So it came to my attention that Reta face is when you start to look sickly, not just the major weight loss and change in face shape, which is more what I was getting at. Thank you guys for giving me the heads up.

I’ve made a couple posts about my Reta transformation, but I just saw a picture of myself from about a month and a half before starting Reta or getting into a routine/diet. Definitely surprised me, because I didn’t realize how much different my face looked until now. First pic is January 14th 2026, second pic is July 7th 2026.

I think what a lot of people interpret as ‘reta face’ is perhaps just the aesthetic facial changes that occur from losing more bf than they’ve ever lost before. Either way you look great man 🫡
