I used to hear the statement-FAT GIRLS on the Facts of Life and i was always confused because Natalie was the only one who was heavy. I didn't watch FOL in the later years but did the other girls gain weight in the later seasons?

they gained a little weight because of puberty but they made too much out of it. I'd hardly call them fat

THe only one that i ever thought of as Fat was Natalie.

Blair went through a period around 81-82 where she got a little chubby, but by 83-84 and through the rest of the series, she was petite

I saw this show when it first came out.. every episode live on tv .. I never had sisters and just loved it sooo much :)

I do remember back then different TV talk Shows & Magazines calling the girls/ tv show

"The Fats of Life"

i think tootie got a bit heavier in the last seasons too, but hey, who wants to be a skinny pencil, ide rather be a happy magic marker!
