About this episode

Gina discusses the challenges of postpartum weight loss with Karlie, who shares her journey and the importance of accountability.

What does it look like to keep showing up when the scale goes the wrong way? Gina sits down with Karlie, a postpartum mom who's been posting weekly Livy Method updates on Instagram, including the weeks she'd rather hide. They get into why sharing failures lands harder than highlight reels, the toxic "skinny talk" side of social media and how she curates against it, losing weight while breastfeeding, quick fixes versus root causes in the age of GLP-1s, and the accountability group chat with her mom and sister that started it all. If your journey doesn't look like a before-and-after, this one's for you. Where to Find Karlie: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kbatterman17   Hosted on Acast.
