I'm Lopsided!

So I took my measurements for the first time today, and I'm quite lopsided!  My left side is larger than my right!!  I can understand that on my legs, because I had an ACL reconstruction on the right leg and the muscle atrophied, but why the right arm?  Is it because I'm right handed?  I think my right boob is the smaller one too.

Is anyone else as lopsided as me? If so did you know it before you took your measurements?

im lopsided too my right leg in longer and my right hip is higher then my left, i kinda new before i took measurements because when i stand one of my knees is about a inch and a half higher then my other one.

i think it might be something to do with my spine or something

I do know that my right breast is smaller than the left one. From what I've heard though every woman has one larger than the other...even by a tiny amount.

Yep, most people have slightly different sized feet too! It's especially noticeable when wearing heels where a good fit is necessary, not so obvious in sneakers!

Your lopsided-ness is totally normal!

My left thigh is a half an inch bigger than my right which I didn't know, but my left breast is about a half to a full cup size differant than the right, that  I did know, can't help but know...talk about lopsided. It's all good though, when I get to my ideal weight, I am going to have them done anyway, as a little gift to myself!

It's more of a money issue for me right now, as I just finished school, but I plan on getting them done too!  Careful who you tell around here though.  There are some seriously anti-breast enhancement people on this site!

Nope. I had this conversation with a Jeweler once. Most everyone  has a bigger right hand than left hand regardless of which one they use to write.

I think it has to do with the other ways that our bodies are uneven (like your heart on one side, your liver on the other). Anyway, like the posts above pointed out: it's normal. No one is truly absolutely even.

the human body isnt symmetrical. when i finallly started applying that concept to my art it became more realistic and meaningful and beautiful. the "deformations" of each human body makes every person unique and its our differences that make us beautiful. not even models have perfectly symmetrical faces (except the ones who had plastic surgery PS style if ya know what i mean haha)

Not only are my arms and legs larger on one side, but my rib cage is also larger on one side.  When I had more "padding," I never noticed LOL!  Now, however, it's pretty noticeable, especially in tee-shirts.  So, I think that's just how we're made.

One of my ears is higher than the other...all my glasses (and I wear glasses >.<) go on wonky.

I think it is pretty much normal for people to have various aspects of their bodies be somewhat off from each other.  In most cases these differences are not noticable to the naked eye and only become noticable when we do measure ourselves precisely.

Ha ha!  "Wonky"!  My new favorite word! 

Scoliosis is a frequent cause of lopsidedness. Those who see a hip wider than the other or the rib cage protruding more on one side than the other.

If you look at your shoulders and notice one side lower than the other, then you know you have it.

I realized a few weeks ago that I have had it forever and went undiagnosed. I have an appointment with a physical therapist in a week, I don't want to end up walking bent our of shape like my mom. She's 87 and her bend is to the side like an "L", it interferes with her breathing.
