Rockabye Maybe (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 13, Episode 4 Recap) 23.07.2025 1:23:51
This week, we’re finally getting the answers to a lot of questions we’ve been asking for quite some time, the most important of which is: did Whitney’s artificial insemination take? Whit is dead set on making one of two decisions: starting a family and staying in Greensboro versus moving somewhere totally different and starting fresh. But will Whitney get discouraged if this first attempt at pregn...
Pussycat, Pussycat, Where Have You Gone? (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 13, Episode 3 Recap) 16.07.2025 1:24:42
This episode is jam-packed - we should have called it "a birthday and a funeral" because it incorporated both Glenn's 79th birthday and Henchi's memorial service. Though Henchi's departure was tragic for all fans of the show, his memorial service was an affair to remember - it was rife with gifts, memories and of course, lots of plastic. As for Whitney, we're still wondering if she actually insemi...
Twinkle, Twinkle, Fertile Star (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 13, Episode 2 Recap) 09.07.2025 1:25:44
Well, the votes are in and, thanks to Isaiah and Jess, Whitney has chosen her League Baby sperm donor! In “Twinkle, Twinkle, Fertile Star,” Whitney puts Ashley’s womb preparation skills to the test as she undergoes a full womb energy cleanse - complete with salty food from an unnamed popular fast food restaurant (McDonald’s) and a plastic turtle named Cappy (after Cappy, of course) with his own en...
Bake Me a Baby as Fast as You Can (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 13, Episode 1 Recap) 09.07.2025 1:17:55
We're finally here on season 13 of MBFFL! We can't believe it. And to add to the fun, TLC has given your girls SCREENERS so we can watch the episodes in advance, create our episodes, and get you the recaps the day after the episodes drop on cable television! In the premier episode of MBFFL, Whitney once again fakes us out in a classic Robert Frost conundrum - two roads are diverged in Greensboro a...

Y'all - we're coming to the (temporary) end of our coverage of Season 2 of MBFFL - because we're going to pick up next week on Season 13, which drops TODAY, JULY 1!

It's finally the night of the big Greensboro Grasshoppers baseball game! and boy, did the weather turn out poorly for Whitney and her BGDC's debut - but don't worry - the girls should be fine regardless of how the dance number goes (though Whitney is entirely convinced that they'll jettison themselves off the stadium if the dance doesn’t go as planned). The manager of baseball operations assures W...
Pasta La Vista! (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 2, Episode 3 Recap) 10.06.2025 1:04:10
This week, Whit is saying "CARBONARA" (huh???) to pasta, bread and other white carbs, even though her dietician specifically advised against it! She's forging her own path and making her own choices and cutting out food groups left and right. Whit decides to put herself to the ultimate challenge - to go out for Italian food with her friends, Babs and Glenn and allow them to order all of her favori...
Whitney's Back! (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 2, Episode 2 Recap) 03.06.2025 51:53
Whitney’s back, y’all! In this aptly titled episode, WWT returns to the spotlight, hand in the air, with renewed determination following her pre-diabetes diagnosis.

Well, finally, we're at the TRUE end of Season 1 and what a wild season it's been! Obviously, the heroine (and America's Mom) of MBFFL is Babs Thore, the queen of red nails and red lips! But will some fresh lipstick and a shot at Whitney's Big Girl Dance Class be enough to bring Babs out of a three-week-long funk from getting into a scary car accident? Or will Babs be clutching her pillow and lurk...
Babs Knows Best (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 11, Part 1 Recap) 29.04.2025 46:30

The Skinny (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 10 Recap) 22.04.2025 57:29
This week’s episode may be called “the skinny” but don’t worry, it’ll be a long time before Whitney discovers the fountain of youth and weight loss stemming from Novo Nordisk. This episode is framed as a season-closing tell-all where Whitney sits down for an interview with one of her producers. While Whit may have been this episode’s intended focus, we couldn’t keep our eyes off the producer, who...
Leaving the Nest (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 9 Recap) 15.04.2025 58:34
Hard to believe we're already on episode 9! Even harder to believe is the fact that Whit talks so much about leaving the nest but never does. We've got a jam packed episode for you this week - Whit gets an EXTREMELY serious diagnosis of pre-diabetes, for one. Unsurprisingly, Babs and Glenn act like it's the end of the world. Whit goes on house tours with Buddy in hopes that they'll start living to...
The Double Blind Date (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 8 Recap) 08.04.2025 56:50
You’ve heard of double-blind experimentation but have you ever heard of a double blind date? This week, Whitney is roping Ashley into a blind date, double date, and online date, all rolled into one. But if you thought anything about this was going to be normal, think again! Whitney has once again pulled Ashley into a world of trouble… And she’s done it by impersonating her online! But there’s only...
The Wedding Job (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 7 Recap) 01.04.2025 1:01:55
Well there's one thing we know about Whitney when she sets her mind to something - she'll not only do it, but she'll make everyone pay, including her friends. When Whitney is asked by a fan to choreograph a wedding dance (a solo dance for all we know, which... yikes), she drops everything (BGDC, BGDC and BGDG) to do it. But when tensions rise and the bride gets cold feet, will Whit fold under pres...
A Fling Thing (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 6 Recap) 25.03.2025 1:05:05
While her parents prepare for their big wedding anniversary, Whit entertains the idea of a fling with an old friend. In fact, for reasons, we don’t really understand, Whit invites her old friend to the anniversary party to “reconnect“ with Babs and Glenn. But will trouble brew when Buddy appears? It all depends on whether you focus on who he brought to the anniversary party… Join in for all the dr...
Doing the Beach! (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 1, Episode 5 Recap) 18.03.2025 49:18
This week, Whit and her BFF Ashley "do" the beach! But don't worry, this isn't a "Debbie Does Dallas" situation. Whit claims that she hasn't been to the beach for between 19-20 years and since she was between 100-114 lbs (can never get a straight figure from her). Will Whit crumble under the pressure of having a bikini body? Or will she "rock her curves the best" and flick those haters off her toe...
