your body's way of staging a tiny rebellion after you fed it the wrong dictator
means To swell or feel uncomfortably full and distended, especially with gas, fluid, or excess of any kind.
from From an old Germanic root meaning "soft" or "swollen," a cousin of words like "blow" — the sense of something puffed up with air or water. Early English used "blote" for things soft and waterlogged (a bloated, brine-soaked herring was once simply a "bloater"). From puffy fish to puffy bellies and puffy software, the word has always meant the same thing: something distended past its proper size.
