Reaganing, NSVs & Confidence-Fueled Weight Loss

October 07, 2025 • Season 1 • Episode 6

🎉 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:

💻 Real Life Weight Loss Weeks — sick kids, zero sleep, and one Wi-Fi adapter that didn’t survive a latte.
🍸 Non-Scale Victories IRL — Kari goes solo to a DC bar, gets hit on mid–Cubs win, and still chooses herself (and her step goals).
💪 Confidence-Fueled Weight Loss — running while fat, pushing through gym fear, and learning that body confidence starts way before goal weight.

If you’ve ever tried to juggle motherhood, gym anxiety, and a messy weight loss journey — this one’s for you.
