This will not age well

I don't know how I stumbled onto this movie or even why I kept watching. It was a bit like a car crash - I just couldn't take my eyes off it. So the premise: you are unlovable, unsuccessful and weak if you are fat. And as each pound melts away, all of these things grow in you.

It is a blindingly vacuous and contrived storyline invented by some cruel creature wanting to shame women.

So here's my alternative- fabulous and beautiful writer recognises that she's immensely talented and capable, grabs some cake and champagne and lives happily ever after with someone who is totally into her and surrounded by friends and joy. And doesn't ever ever think of starving herself again.

The end. There, I fixed it.
