🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh!

We’re Kari and Lisa, two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, still untangling what it means to live fully in bodies that are changing — after a lifetime of diet culture, food noise, and learning not to trust ourselves.

This week’s episode tackles one of the loudest diet culture lies of all....

that restriction = success.

🥩 Keto in Public & Diet Absurdity
Keto is cute until you try to exist in public and order food like a normal person. From restaurant panic to butter math, we unpack why ultra-restrictive diets collapsed for us the second real life showed up.

🍟 Fast Food Guilt & Food Morality
Why eating fast food is not a moral failing and sometimes dinner is just Tuesday night. We talk about how food gets moralized, why that shame sticks, and how it quietly sabotages long-term weight loss.

🥔 Restriction vs Restraint & Deprogramming Carb Fear
We break down the difference between restriction and restraint, why “I could have it” is a secret weapon, and why we are officially deprogramming fear of carbs — starting with potatoes, our beloved.

We also talk real-life weight loss, GLP-1s, plus-size fitness, identity shifts, and what it looks like to build trust with yourself instead of fighting your body forever.

If you’re navigating weight loss while still living a real life, this episode is for you.
