Hydration for Weight Loss, Electrolytes & a Look Back on 2025
🎉 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:
💧 Hydration for Weight Loss
Why drinking water is somehow harder than it should be, how dehydration messes with hunger cues, cravings, energy, and workouts, and whether hydration actually helps with weight loss or just makes you pee more.
🧂 Electrolytes & What Actually Works
WaterTok rage, homemade electrolyte mixes, potassium and magnesium, carbonation cravings, and the debate over what counts as “real water” when you’re trying to feel better, run farther, and stop relying on soda for survival.
🎙 A Look Back on 2025
What it really took to launch this podcast, learn new tools on the fly, get over the fear of putting ourselves online, and why hearing “I thought I was the only one” from listeners changed everything. The wins, the hard parts, and what we’re taking with us into the new year.
If you’re trying to reset without doing a cliche New Year’s resolution, struggling with hydration, or wondering what actually helped us stay consistent this year, this one’s for you.
