Fat Monica on Friends, Glute Gains & Asterisks on Every Win
🎉 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.
More big feelings this week:
⚖️ Shame Around Achievement — why every promotion, project, or personal win used to come with an invisible “but I’m fat,” and what it takes to stop shrinking our own successes.
🎬 Fat Monica on Friends — from Chandler’s cheap shots to Ugly Naked Guy, we revisit the sitcom’s fat-suit era and unpack why those jokes hit us Biggins so hard.
🍑 Booty Checks & Glute Gains — Quick Wins makes its debut, where we shamelessly brag about our peaches like they just took home Best in Show.
If you’ve ever laughed at Friends and cringed later, felt proud but instantly undercut yourself, or just wanted someone to celebrate glute gains with — this one’s for you.
