Chatting About Trigger Warnings, Goal Weights, and Bariatric Surgery as the Easy Way Out

Former Fat Friend

Episode 7: In this candid and exploratory episode of the Former Fat Friend podcast, hosts Kasey, Lisa, and Allie switch things up and dive into a spontaneous "Chatting About" series. Unscripted and unrestrained, they delve into a wide array of topics that are top of mind, ranging from the nuances of trigger warnings on weight-related content to the often humorous interactions with others as it relates to food and food choices.

Kasey, Lisa, and Allie don't shy away from the personal either, as they share heartfelt stories that reveal the unexpected emotional hurdles they've encountered post-weight loss. Allie's poignant reflection on motherhood and the physical changes that come with significant weight loss is a raw testament to the deep-seated connections between body image and family dynamics.

The conversation takes a turn towards the concept of goal weights, where the hosts question the importance and practicality of setting a specific target number. They unpack the psychological drive to keep pushing for new milestones and the realization that success isn't always a fixed point, but rather a flexible and evolving state of being.
