🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh!

We’re Kari and Lisa — two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, still untangling what it means to live in smaller bodies in a world that never missed a chance to body-shame us.

This week’s episode focuses on two heavy-hitting, very real topics:

🎄 Holiday Weight Loss
Why December isn’t a moral test, how “everyone gains weight over the holidays” became a cultural rule, and what changes when you stop waiting for January and stay intentional through potlucks, grazing, and nonstop food noise.

✈️ Flying While Fat
Seatbelt extenders, hyper-visibility, fear of judgment, and the deep anxiety of navigating air travel in a bigger body — plus how those experiences can quietly limit adventure if you let them.

We also talk clean-plate conditioning, obligation eating, and why shame has no place in holiday weight loss.

If holiday eating stresses you out, travel feels emotionally loaded, or you’ve ever felt like your body had to be managed for other people’s comfort — this episode is for you.

🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh!

We’re Kari and Lisa — two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, still untangling what it means to love ourselves in a world that never missed a chance to body-shame us.

This week’s episode dives into:

✨ Metabolizing Joy — Kari’s fresh off a soul-filling weekend in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and we unpack what it feels like to be surrounded by people who light you up, want you to win, and make life feel expansive again.

🤝 Adult Friendships & Real Community — why finding your people as an adult is so hard, how abundance mindset changes the way you connect, and why community hits different when you’re doing deep work like weight loss, healing, and identity shifts.

🧠 Gratitude That Actually Works — not the performative “write three things” version, but the kind of gratitude practice that rewires your brain, softens food noise, and helps you stop auditioning for belonging.

🚨 Huge Announcement — we officially launched the Born This Weigh Patreon. Bonus content, behind-the-scenes chaos, deeper dives that are too spicy for the main feed, and some very cute downloads for listeners who want more of us.

If you’ve ever felt lonely in transformation, struggled to find people who get this season of your life, or realized you’ve been auditioning for connection instead of receiving it — this one’s for you.

This week’s episode dives into:

🍽️ The Weight Watchers Diets — the points math, the weigh-ins, the binge–restrict mindset, the emotional eating patterns we learned as kids, and why so many of us picked up secret eating and food guilt without even realizing it.

🎄 Holiday Stress — the food noise, the emotional overload, the holiday overeating triggers, the grief season spiral, the pressure to perform “holiday cheer,” and why December is the hardest month for weight loss, calorie control, and staying consistent.

😵 Emotional Eating — the nighttime overeating loops, stress eating during mom-life chaos, cravings that spike when you’re overwhelmed, the “I’ll start in January” trap, and how binge eating shows up when routines fall apart.

If you’ve ever tried to lose weight during the holidays, battled food noise at night, felt stuck in emotional eating cycles, or worried about holiday weight gain while juggling family stress, this one’s for you.
