It's been a while since I literally laughed out loud, but watching 'Muffin Top' with a theater full of women who have dealt with thinking they don't measure up in the eyes of others as well as themselves was a fun and uplifting experience. The writer, Cathryn Michon, has written a screenplay that is beyond clever and dead on in what women think when they gain a few pounds. The movie, from beginning to end, will make you thankful, if you aren't already, to be in the skin you are in and to most importantly be a woman and have all the ups and downs, including those on the scales, that we do in our lives. Melissa Peterman, who is a great comedic actress, stole many of the scenes with her what seemed to be off the top of her head remarks, a result of great writing. The interaction between Peterman and Michon was much like what I have had with my own BFFs, making the scenes even more close to real life and more touching with each laugh.
