A Good Problem to Have

Posted on

I have a huge problem… I started packing for my business trip and I don’t have any clothes that fit! My (custom made) pants are falling off of me!!!! I am beyond elated. Luckily I have a couple of others that will make do… One pair that had gotten too tight in the waist as my lipedema started spiraling out of control in my abdomen are too big too but not as bad. I also weighed myself and I’ve lost at least 15 pounds from before my surgery. And tonight no issues in the shower! ‪#‎Success!!!! Thank you Dr. Jason Joel Emer

I am a 40 year old healthy woman with no co-morbiditys. However, I am considered overweight despite diet and exercise. I've always carried my weight exclusively in my hips, thighs and buttocks. Recently, it has spread into my upper arms, abdomen and some fat pockets developed on my shins. I have a significantly disproportionate shape. Tiny up top, huge on the bottom. I've been complaining for years of pain and fatigue but with no answers. Finally, on 12/29/14, I was diagnosed with lipedema, an underdiagnosed adipose tissue disorder. I have created this page to share my journey in hopes to spread awareness and hope for others who suffer from this condition.
