🎉 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:

🎬 John Candy & The Caretaker Archetype — gentle giants, funny fat men, and what it costs to make everyone else comfortable while forgetting yourself. We break down (literally) fall 2025's hugely popular documentary John Candy: I Like Me.

🍩 Food As Love — dessert rooms, cookie tables, and Dairy Queen orders that double as grief rituals. How comfort food became our love language (and our emotional support system).

💪 Fitness While Fat — Tough Mudder stories, muddy miracles, and why showing up sweaty in the middle of the journey beats waiting for a perfect “after.”

If you’ve ever cried over John Candy, survived a family buffet, or tried to exercise while your thighs started a small fire, this one’s for you.
