Episode 31: In this deeply personal episode of Former Fat Friend, host Kasey is joined by her inspiring mom, Linda, who shares her remarkable weight loss journey and the transformative impact of GLP-1 medication. After losing an impressive 90 pounds over the past two years, Linda opens up about her lifelong struggles with weight, the emotional toll of dieting, and the pivotal moments that led her to embrace this new chapter of her life.


Kasey and Linda reflect on their unique mother-daughter dynamic, discussing the challenges of navigating weight issues in a family setting, and how their experiences have shaped their perspectives on health and body image. Linda shares her candid thoughts on the various diets and weight loss programs she tried throughout the years, as well as her initial hesitance towards weight loss surgery before ultimately supporting Kasey through her own bariatric journey.

As they delve into the role of GLP-1 medication in Linda's weight loss success, she emphasizes how this treatment has changed her relationship with food, allowing her to enjoy meals without the constant obsession over calories. The discussion highlights the importance of community, support, and self-acceptance in the ongoing journey of weight management.

Join us for this heartfelt conversation that underscores the message that it's never too late to make a change and that weight loss is not just a physical transformation, but an emotional and mental journey as well.
