You have to remember, this is a marathon not a sprint. Losing a lot of weight quickly isn't healthy.
Make sure you're changing your lifestyle and not only doing this for 6 months to lose weight; because if you go back to your old ways that weight will come right back.
All of us here will gladly point you to the right information to help you reach your goals.
Your nipples may also look low in proportion to your body because of posture also. If you have forward head, kyphosis, and rounded shoulders, which a lot of people unknowingly have it gives the appearance of that.

Currently I'm losing just over a pound or two per week which is what most people should aim for assuming they don't weigh 300+ pounds and aren't 6'+ and active.
Yeah, I know it's not a sprint. And tbh I was expecting to drop slower, but I guess my body got shocked from the lifestyle change.
A month ago I was walking about 1-2 miles per day and spending the rest of the day in front of the computer eating 4000 calories.
Now I've started walking 5-15 miles (depending on weather), started working out 3-4 days/ week and changed my diet to healthier choices
You're probably right, I didn't think about proportion. I forget that I always have to slouch in order to see my head in the mirror (6'5)
As for going back to my old habits in 6 months. No way! I'm feeling better both mentally and physically than I've done in years and if I go back to my old lifestyle Ill probably die before I'm 50, which I would prefer not to.

Yeah, agreed with ^
When you're obsessed with losing weight you can lose some belly fat, but in all honesty you should incorporate an all-body workout either from home or at the gym to tone up more.
When you walk down the beach compared to last year and lose 20lbs, not many people will notice a difference. However, when you get some more muscles, broader shoulders you could get a nice v-taper going on bro.
However, good job losing a few lbs. Stick at it :)
Thanks!
I'm lifting 3-4 days / week and plan gradually increasing while my body gets used to, well actually doing something.
My goal is ofc to eventually have some great muscles to show off, but being able to find clothes my size in my town is the first goal.
