Chubby cheeks: I assume you are talking about cheeks on your face not your butt. So google Cushings Syndrome and look at images. If you look like that then ask your Dr to look again. This comes from an adrenal or pituitary problem making excess cortisol. Eating too much will do it. Taking steroids will do it.
