It's not hard to hear,I live in my body. I know my current state. But it's not the issue at hand. I could understand the weight being relevant if I were referring to knee joints, but
Why are they always "living in their body"? I've never heard anyone say that except the morbidly obese.
Best part is when they asked "if a person with a normal BMI wrote this post and you were only addressing the issue with my arms and hands what would your theory be?" and the person responded back with the exact same answer. Diabetic neuropathy... The fact that they think that the doctor wouldn't suspect diabetes in a thin or fit person means that diabetes is a fat persons disease. Fat people? Getting diseases? So shocked!
I actually hear "living in your body" fairly often in eating disorder recovery. I don't think they use it the same as an obeast does. It's supposed to mean being 'present' in your body, i.e. actually paying attention to hunger signals or what your ED voice is telling you to do and how that confirms/conflicts with what your body is telling you. Not really the same, so it seems like yet another thing hamhands have warped for their own use.
