TRADING baggy clothes for bikinis, a woman has spoken out about how social media helped her embrace a condition that had held her back all her life. Jennifer Williams, of Los Angeles, has struggled with Lipedema – which causes an abnormal build-up of fat – since she was around ten years old. But it was only in the last few years that the 44-year-old actually learned what condition she had and began showing off her larger figure in Instagram shots. Jennifer, who works in the medical field, told Barcroft Studios: “When I was sad and in what I call my ‘lost state’, I really didn't want to be who I was and I really didn't care about myself. “I am the happiest now than I have ever been in my life. I think a lot of self-acceptance and learning about it has helped me embrace it.”
