Whitney - known for her larger than life personality and infectious energy - has always dreamed of traveling to Paris, the fashion capital of the world. And, after years of hard work and dedication, she's finally made it to the City of Lights.

As soon as she arrives, Whitney takes in all the sights and marvels at the iconic Parisian architecture and landmarks.

Whitney and her friend, Ryan, also take a river cruise on the famous Seine, allowing them to get a stunning view of all the monumental landmarks on either side of the river.

Of course, no trip to Paris would be complete without indulging in all the delicious food that the city has to offer. Whitney and her friends make their way to a traditional French bistro, where they sample escargot, steak tartare, and other classic French dishes. Whitney is surprised to discover that the snails don't taste as bad as she thought they would, and she even admits to liking them.

Whitney also takes a French language class to prepare herself for her trip, but she quickly finds out that it's not as easy as she thought it would be, struggling to keep up with the fast pace of the language. Despite the difficulties of learning a new language, Whitney is determined to continue practicing so she can fully immerse herself in the French culture.

When Whitney and her friends go shopping in Paris, she finds that the fashion available in her size isn't as plentiful as she had expected.

With her irrepressible confidence, Whitney is an inspiration to viewers, teaching them that anyone can feel beautiful and fashionable in clothes that fit them properly.

Throughout the episode, Whitney is bubbly and vivacious, excitedly taking in everything around her and savoring every moment of the adventure. But the trip is not without its difficulties. Whitney has moments where she feels overwhelmed by the new environment, and she admits to feeling insecure at times about her weight and how it affects her experiences. However, as always, she perseveres, and ultimately emerges from the trip feeling empowered and fulfilled.

Overall, "A Fat Girl In Paris" is a fun, entertaining, and inspiring episode of My Big Fat Fabulous Life, showing that even with societal expectations of smaller bodies, there's no shame in enjoying all that life has to offer at any size.
