No, they're not. And 40 dives later you ask? LOL
They should fit like a snug body stocking and give when you move, without any bulging or gaps anywhere. If not, then you should seek to have it tailored or upgraded.
I have a Henderson 3mm H2 Titanium suit and it fits well. It is not so comfortable that I would wear it around the house, but it doesn't bother me either.

Assuming you are male since women's wsuits are usually numerically sized. A men's large is most likely too big for you - possibly bordering on "way too big". According to a Mares size chart I found on leisurepro (I couldn't find on on mares.com) 5'5" and 140 lbs fits into their size guide for "small".
It would help to what about it is uncomfortable: too tight, too long, itchy, etc...

In what way is it uncomfortable and is it hard to put on?

sizes are totally different in other countries. I am based in South Korea and I use a western Xl suit, korean size for me is xxxl.
to the OP - it should not be uncomfortable at all. your concern at the extreme is the suit cutting off circulation.
My suits always seem to get tighter as the years go by but that is no different to my normal clothes

Most definetly should be comfortable ~ and you must have a wrong fitting ?
Over here Taiwan, easy to get a good wetsuit, made to measure, any colours, tailored to fit and my 2mm shortie and 3mm full suits fit like gloves.
Cheers
