Whitney Way Thore was seen having a heart to heart with her BFF Buddy Bell on Tuesday's episode of 'My Big Fat Fabulous Life'. Audiences of the show have known the star of the hit TLC show focused around her to be extremely confident in her body. However, her breakup with ex-fiance Chase Severino shattered her self-esteem and sense of self-worth. She has confined herself to her couch and was crying on end, trying to process the fact that she's no longer going to be married. She had spoken about wanting to be a mother on the previous season with Chase, however, the fact that her fiance had slept with another woman, an encounter which resulted in pregnancy was something that was very hard for her to take in. Whitney was now talking about considering bariatric surgery to lose weight because she didn't believe she'd find love at her size.

She was extremely low but Buddy Bell continued to pep her up, giving her hope for the future. Whitney had just spoken to Chase on the phone. Hearing him say that he loved his baby mama and was in a relationship with her broke her further. She continued saying she wanted to 'not be myself' after talking to Chase. The fact that he didn't try to salvage his relationship with her and instead told her that he was in love the woman he cheated her with was difficult for her to process. The stress of being alone was making her want to have someone else's body.

She then told Buddy about her ex-boyfriend, the one she dated before she got together with Chase. They had been talking recently and he told her about how annoyed he would get with the way people used to check Whitney out when they used to hang out at the club. They met at a bar and he said people would think he was a fat fetishist. Whitney said she just wanted a man who'd just be happy to have her at the same time she didn't want him to be treated differently by people. 

A preview of what's to come next in the season played at the end of Tuesday's episode. Someone from Whitney's past had turned up on her door. Is this the man she was talking about? We'll have to find out next week. 

'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' airs Tuesdays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
