I just finished watching this movie and while the photog in it was super gorgeous I don't know how realistic this movie is. The main character decides that she wants to gain weight so that the photog will like her so she starts putting on weight rapidly in 2 weeks she goes from size 44 to 66 and being a model that's an issue. While I applaud the film for what it's trying to do I don't think it went the right way about it. You're supposed to love yourself regardless of your weight and not change that on a whim for a man. What if this man still wouldn't have dated her even though she changed for him. I think this movie could have been approached differently and I'm not sure how it was received when it came out but I was upset when the photog told this woman to eat 20 steaks just to date him in one sitting. No one in their right mind would suggest such a thing and I don't think she should of had to eat all of that meat in one sitting just to prove how bad she wanted to be with him. What if she had of had a stroke eating all that meat at one time. I just think that this movie could have been approached better.

Fat is fine

I liked the actress she is striking model like and they made her look fat in a natural manner. Not fat suit like at all. The cast is sweet and likeable. The lead actor is sweet and the brother is funny. For the light subject matter - being fat is fine, the movie was well done and enjoyable.
Funny and refreshing
