About this episode
The Bounce Back Lie: Real Talk on Weight Loss After Baby
In this candid and powerful episode, Gianna sits down with registered dietitian and founder of Kelly’s Choice, Kelly Springer, for a deep dive into the real conversations missing from postpartum weight loss and GLP-1 medication discussions.
Together, they unpack the myth of “bouncing back,” the dangers of appetite suppression, and why you can’t supplement your way out of starvation mode—especially as a postpartum mom.
If you’ve felt overwhelmed by body image expectations, tempted by quick fixes, or unsure how to actually nourish your body after having a baby, this episode gives you the clarity and compassion you’ve been craving.
