## Resource

Weight gain is not a moral failure. But we live in a culture that treats it like one. Ryann, Brooke, and Jess get into the identity shift that comes with a body that looks or feels different, why comparing yourself to a previous version of yourself is one of the least useful things you can do, and what it looks like to rebuild confidence when the scale is not moving in the direction diet culture tells you it should. They talk about goal pants, buying new clothes, and skinny culture trying to make it's comeback. Plus a real conversation about postpartum, weight class sports, athletic performance, and why the most exciting thing about you has never been what you weigh.
