Can I LOSE WEIGHT Without F-ing Up my Kids?! How to Raise Body Confident Kids in Diet Culture with Cat & Nat

In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, I’m joined by the hilarious duo Cat and Nat — the OG #MomTruth messengers and hosts of Cat & Nat Unfiltered. From granola-bar bathroom breaks to feeling completely touched out yet strangely alone, we get real about the messy irony of motherhood: it’s isolating and universal all at once. We chat about letting go of the pressure to be the “perfect lunchbox mom,” helping our kids navigate puberty in a world saturated with diet culture, and how to stay sane while parenting in the age of social media. If you’ve ever felt guilty about packaged snacks or found self-care in hiding from your family, this one’s for you.
