🎉 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:

💅 Feeling Girly Again — Lisa gets an "extended scalp massage", unlocks her inner rich auntie, and suddenly understands why people walk around the neighborhood just to let everyone see their hair. From lived-in blonde to root melts to reclaiming femininity after years of “I’m not a girly girl,” we get into all of it.

🩺 Fat-Girl Doctor Anxiety — how stepping on a scale in front of a clinic can feel like a jump scare, how weight stigma makes Biggins delay appointments, and the survival strategies fat women learn just to get actual medical care. Just another day with the emotional gymnastics of being a patient in a bigger body.

🎂 Turning 40 — the identity crisis, the wilderness retreat fantasies, the desire for peace (and scalp spas), AND the chaotic dream of bringing all your favorite people together in the middle of the woods (or the French Quarter???) just to talk a;; about you. What kind of party can you throw when you actually want quiet for the first time in your life?

If you’ve ever avoided a doctor’s visit, walked outside just so people could witness your hot-girl hair, or fantasized about a quiet but also raging 40th birthday in a cabin where everyone compliments you to each other (...just us?) — this one’s for you.
