Dear sir, Fatty liver is commonly associated with alcohol or metabolic syndrome (diabetes, hypertension, obesity and dyslipidemia) and i hope so that alcohol isnt the cause in your case.
You should definitely lose some weight(at least 10-15 kg). This is probably the main cause of your liver disorder. You need to change your lifestyle, diet and sport habbits.
The treatment of fatty liver depends on its cause, and generally, treating the underlying cause will reverse the process of steatosis if implemented at an early stage. It usually last for 4-6months if u do what i ve advised. Fullness can also be symptom of obesity, liver enlargement, gastritis or colon disorders. You need to see if your dietary changes would affect on your fullness feeling. If not u should do gastroscopy and colonoscopy to rule out some other diseases.

Wish you good health.Dr. Ivan Romich
