Danielle Fishel says there was a point during her time on Boy Meets World when she felt forced to make fun of her own appearance.

The actor, who played Topanga Lawrence on the 90s ABC sitcom, said the shows producers and writers called her into an office to tell her they were going to write an episode about her real-life weight gain.

It wasnt really like they asked, Fishel said during an episode of her podcast, Pod Meets World , released Monday.
