Weight Gain During a Weight Loss Journey

🎉 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.

If you’ve ever had a weekly weigh-in throw you off, send you into a spiral, or make you question your entire wellness journey, this episode is for you.🧠 Scale Anxiety, Panic Spirals & Trying Not to Catastrophize We talk about scale anxiety, the urge to panic, and how fast one small gain can bring up old body image wounds, fear, and self-doubt. From weight fluctuations to the mental side of weight loss, this one is very real.😂 Choosing Growth Even When It's Hard We also get into the annoying reality of trying to choose growth over panic, plus the usual Born This Weigh chaos, including crunchy mom tangents, pediatrician side-eye, sneezing, spilled water, and pre-show nonsense that somehow feels very on brand.If you’ve ever searched why am I gaining weight during weight loss, felt thrown off by normal weight fluctuations, or needed someone else to say that one weird week does not mean you’re failing, 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.
