I was born with biliary atresia. Don’t worry if you haven’t heard of it. It’s rare. Basically it is a liver disorder where the bile duct is filled with scar tissue. I had a surgery when I was three weeks old to remove the scar tissue. Some complications from this disease is an enlarged spleen and enlarged hardened liver. I still have my native liver and I’m in my thirties. A blessing I never want to take for granted.
However, with this enlarged spleen and liver, my torso is lopsided and sticks out way further than it should. Now even though I’ve lost over 100 lbs in the past couple years, I feel as though I look the same or worse sometimes. I know realistically I can’t with a 100 lbs loss. However, I’m having a hard time getting around the fact that although I weigh under 200lbs, I feel as though I look 300lbs.
Does anyone else have health issues that distort their body where their weight loss isn’t as noticeable? If so, how do you deal with it?
