The My Big Fat Fabulous Life cast member turns the mountain coaster into a competition. She wants to see who can go down the fastest. However, if she isn’t able to fit on the sled, she can’t compete. She doesn’t want to let her niece, Jamie, beat her by default. So, she knows she will have to at least try to go down the mountain in the toboggan.
Whitney is able to fit in and starts to go down the hill. She tries to catch up to Jamie. But it is harder than she thought it was going to be. Jamie shows no signs of slowing down, and she isn’t able to catch up.
Whitney Claims Dad as the Loser
Whitney made it down the mountain. However, getting out of the toboggan was a struggle. She didn’t know when she was supposed to get off. So, she jumps off at the last minute. She says that the instructions to get off weren’t clear.


The My Big Fat Fabulous Life castmate feels her dad, Glenn Thore, was the slowest to go down the mountain. However, Jamie tells her aunt that she thinks she is the slowest. However, she disagrees and says, “Trust me, Dad is slower.”
There was no clear winner of who went down the mountain the fastest. But will Whitney turn everything they do during their family trip to Switzerland into a competition?
