Brief Answer:
Adam's apple does become visible after weight loss

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for trusting us with your health-related questions.

Congratulations on losing weight as this is very beneficial to your health. With a big amount of weight loss, it is normal for bones and cartilages to become more visible.

I would recommend you adapt to a lifestyle and diet that would allow or a more gradual weight loss, as 20 pounds in a month seems quite drastic.

If you have further questions, please feel free to ask.

Take care
