So diet face – people getting skinny in middle age and then looking gaunt and aged – is a thing! Obviously, it is more of a thing for women, because everything is. Cosmetic surgeons, those doctors of insecurity, talk of gravitational descent, eyebrow deflation, jowling and neck laxity.

We don’t really want the problem “solved”; we like wallowing in the wretchedness of others. Particularly sexually. No one cares about people having a good time. What we really want are premature ejaculators with herpes. It is in this spirit that I am delighted to come across a problem that I have never suffered from and am unlikely to encounter: “diet face”. Last week, the broadcaster Jenni Murray said she was content not to lose any more weight, having lost 25kg (4st) after a sleeve gastrectomy, because she didn’t want her face to collapse like Nigel Lawson’s. So diet face – people getting skinny in middle age and then looking gaunt and aged – is a thing! Obviously, it is more of a thing for women, because everything is. Cosmetic surgeons, those doctors of insecurity, talk of gravitational descent, eyebrow deflation, jowling and neck laxity. Nice. The actor Courteney Cox once said: “In Hollywood, to get your bottom half to be the right size, your face may have to be a little gaunt.” Or, as the adage has it, at some stage you have to choose between your face and your arse. But don’t worry, because none of us need to look like skulls on sticks thanks to fillers, which can replace your lost subcutaneous fat. You can inject all sorts of stuff into your face, as well as doing something called a “micro-fat transfer” . This really is modern womanhood: starve yourself stupid and work out every goddamned minute so that you can stay young-looking – but don’t forget to spend a fortune plumping up your caved-in face.

Learn More »Chronic dieting has been linked to mood dysregulation. This could be due to an increased focus on size and weight, affecting body image and self esteem. This is often characterised by negative self talk, body or mirror checking for flaws, causing drops in mood.
Putting too much emphasis on body image, weight, and size can lead to irregular eating behaviors over time. This may fly under the radar for a long period of time. Maybe you feel like you just eat ‘clean’ and you are just really health conscious. However, this is a problem if you feel restricted, start to get anxious around food choice or start to become extremely food or body focused. This might look like worrying about your food choice, being very food focused or negatively self talking about your body or your food choices. If you feel overly controlled or sporadically out of control around food you may be experiencing disordered eating.
