Obesity and aging

31m 5'9 200 pounds. I know im fat but but im losing weight about as fast as I can (i was more like 202 last week).

im worried that I am aging poorly due to a lifetime of obesity. i got forehead lines from weight loss when I was 19. People say I look my age, but I don't know if weight loss will make me look older or younger.

my bigger concern is how old I feel vs how I look. a few years ago when I was about 230 I started getting back and knee pain and struggled with basic exercise. for a while I had trouble being on my feet for an extended period of time, and would take sitting breaks while cooking and cleaning. when I told my nutritionist she said "that's not normal for for someone in their 20s".

I don't have those symptoms anymore, but my fitness is not where it should be for my early 30s. i can't do push ups or run. i can do hikes though which is definitely an improvement. I wonder if I did permanent damage to my body, and im going to run into a lot of problems even with weight loss

what was your experience with weight loss and looking and aging?
