I also gain fat/water in my face.
Was at 9-10% like a month ago. Been bulking, but on about 1% bf. Now my face looks fucking fat at 11% AND I HAVE FUCKING ABS!!
WHY!!!!!!!??????
Blows.
One thing I like about it though, is my face gains fat about 10-14 days before my body does, so if I notice my face getting fat (which is hard to do, since I see myself every day in the mirror), I can slow my bulk down before my body gets fat.
