Physical Traps Fat People Hate (and Body Dysmorphia After Weight Loss)

🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh!We’re Kari and Lisa, two moms who’ve lost a combined 170+ pounds and are still unpacking the wiring that came with growing up as the fat kid. This is the podcast where we talk about body image, diet culture, identity shifts, motherhood, and the mental chaos of trying to change your body without losing your mind in the process.💛 Want to support Born This Weigh?

We get into the identity whiplash that can come with weight loss, and why your brain does not always catch up as fast as your body does.😂 Physical Traps Fat People Hate We also break down the everyday setups that feel personally designed to take fat people out: folding chairs, plastic patio chairs, restaurant booths, high-top stools, stadium seats, airplane bathrooms, pool ladders, kayaks, turnstiles, and more. If you have ever walked into a room and immediately scanned for the safest place to sit, this one is for you.🪑 Living in a Bigger Body in Public From mentally planning around seating to navigating spaces that were clearly not designed with larger bodies in mind, this episode is painfully relatable, deeply unserious, and way too specific in the most validating way.🚨 Also… Baby Jessica Yes, she comes up. Yes, the well. Yes, it all makes sense in context.If you’ve ever struggled with body image after weight loss, felt stuck in your old identity, or been personally victimized by a folding chair, this episode is for you.✨ Hit follow so you don’t miss new episodes every week. ✨ If you like what you hear, leave us a rating or review.
