🎉 Welcome to the debut of Born This Weigh! We’re Lisa and Kari — two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, and still untangling what it means to grow up fat in a world that never let us forget it.
We made this podcast because there are so many of us who’ve carried weight — and the shame that we were taught should come with it — for a long time. It shaped our humor, our choices, our confidence, even our mental health.
Born This Weigh is our place to finally talk about it out loud. The body changes, but the wiring sticks around — and we’re here to untangle it with honesty, curiosity, and plenty of laughter along the way.
📺 This first episode is part origin story, part girl-crush hangout. You’ll hear how we met, why we decided to start a podcast in the middle of our weight loss journeys, and what you can expect from the show moving forward.
In this episode, we'll also chat about:
👖 How The Biggest Loser Documentary helped launch this podcast, with our own Biggest Loser-era origin stories
If you’ve ever felt like your body was your whole personality — and now you’re trying to figure out who you are without that scaffolding — you’re in the right place.
