    Jan 21 2026

    This episode: Brace yourself, because we’re having an intervention! As all previous efforts to convince Whit that (eating-related) crime doesn’t pay have failed, Babs and Glenn are taking things to a new level. With Tal at the helm of this rapidly sinking ship, Whitney’s family and friends decide that throwing her a phony funeral (a “fune” for those who have meowed ‘Amazing Grace’ with us in Season 13). Will attending her own fune be enough to kickstart Whitney’s weight-loss journey once and for all? Or will it make her so mad she backslides to spite her fake-fune-throwing friends and family? Join us and find out!

  • The Skinny (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 2, Episode 23, Part 2 Recap)
    Jan 7 2026

    This week, though we’re back with more of everyone’s least favorite recap “the Skinny,” we’re shaking things up and adding guests to the interview couch, and thank God because it’s cutting some of the tension between Whit and Mike Kane! We think it’s safe to say that there’s no one we’d rather hear from about Whitney’s life choices than Babs and Glenn - and they’re here to answer all our burning questions! Babs and Glenn reveal behind the scenes insights, talk about intimate moments and finally dish on some of the drama involved in MBFFL!
