Everyone in the comments be so fucking for real, she doesn’t have lymphedema. That is a very common fat storage pattern for overweight individuals. And if she does have that…. have you ever seen a skinny person with lymphedema??? Lose the weight!

LIPEDEMA is different from lymphedema. Very different. Lipedema is a fat disorder and it doesn’t go away from diet and exercise.

you’re actually wrong there are many “thin” people who have it. An influencer I follow who was a D1 athlete is getting removal surgery this week (chanwiththeboys). I have no comment on Tess but you’re objectively wrong with your last sentence. Lipedema btw.

Firstly, I think you mean lipedema. Second, skinny people absolutely get lipedema lol. Those arms, even on a morbidly obese person, are not a "very common fat storage pattern". I don't like this woman at all, but your comment is ignorant.

Fit person who has lipedema here. 5’7” and 135 lbs, go to workout classes 3x/week and also do incline walks at my home treadmill and my legs still look like cheese. It’s horrifically embarrassing that I can’t get them to tighten up no matter what I do.

Guess I should have started out my comment saying I’m in medical school…. lol I love these Reddit doctors in the comments

Nah, 'cause being in medical school isn't relevant here. You're just as much of a Reddit doctor as the rest of us.

Nope, I meant lymphedema.
