🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh!

We’re Kari and Lisa, two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, still untangling what it means to live fully in bodies that are changing — in a culture that makes January feel like an open season on fat bodies.

This week’s episode centers around three very real January conversations:

📅 January Diet Culture
Why January is the loudest, most exhausting month to exist in a bigger body. From targeted ads and gym chaos to “new year, new me” small talk, we unpack why wellness season always turns into weight surveillance — and why it hits harder than people admit.

💉 Starting GLP-1s
Lisa shares why she decided to start GLP-1s as a tool for food noise and binging, the complicated feelings that come with it, and why other people’s opinions about bodies (especially fat bodies) are never actually about health. We talk sovereignty, stigma, and what people get wrong about willpower.

🌀 A Wild Plot Twist
Just when the episode feels gets in the groove… things escalate. One of us makes a decision that absolutely no one saw coming — including us — and it changes how we’re thinking about training, nourishment, and what our bodies are capable of next.

We also talk gym anxiety, TikTok cringe, food noise as a mental battle, January bingo-card moments, and what freedom actually feels like when you stop fighting yourself all day.

If January makes you feel exposed, judged, or like your body suddenly became public property, this episode is for you.
