If you have Lipedema, or suspect you know someone with Lipedema, you need to read this book. If you know a woman, or care about a woman, you need to read this book. Nearly 11% of women in this world suffer from Lipedema, the “painful fat” disorder that causes abnormal buildup of adipose tissue largely on hips, buttocks, and legs but sometimes on the arms and stomach, which is non-responsive to diet and exercise. You might not even realize it, but you know someone suffering from this condition. Too many women suffer from this disorder, wearing long pants and skirts even on the hottest summer days, and yes, even on the beach, to try to hide their misshapen legs, not understanding why their legs don’t look like everyone else’s.
Susan, an incredible blogger and social media influencer, has done a brilliant job of putting together a manual that is just as useful for the woman suffering from Lipedema, or the medical professional who likely sees cases of Lipedema in their patients every day, or the person who cares about a woman in their life who might be suffering from this disorder. Her incredibly human approach to writing in the book mirrors the same from her blog, and it is a joy and so incredibly cathartic to read her story.
Additionally, it is clear that Susan cares deeply for women with Lipedema, and that is demonstrated more so by the way she incorporated the stories of so many other women into this book.
One of my favorite features of the book is the QR codes interspersed throughout the pages, which allow for easy access to the numerous helpful links provided. She included all of the most important research and leading Lipedema organizations’ resources, providing a one stop shop of everything you need to know about Lipedema.
I could write a book of compliments to share how much this book and Susan’s story mean to me and the Lipedema community, but you’ll just have to read it. And when you do, make sure to pick up a few extra copies and share them with your own doctors, massage therapists, hairstylists, friends, and family.
