I really enjoyed that. Will was down bad for AJ, even after 8 years, and I love that for AJ. won't lie I was ready to clock Eleanor once I understood what her part was in the break-up because who likes a judgemental bitch, mother of the MMC or not. She also didn't grovel enough for said part in break up imo.

Anyway, I loved that AJ was unapologetically herself like "Yeah I'm fat so-fucking-what? Try harder to get me down" but we also saw her vulnerable moments which would realistically still be there regardless of how comfortable someone is with their body.

Side characters(Chloe, Alex & Tandy) were fun but wish we saw more of them and AJ interacting.
