  I am hoping for the best, but the synopsis is screaming stereotypes to me, i.e. you must lose weight to prevent a man from cheating, etc.

  We've seen this before. Sounds like "Phat Girls" with a twist!

  @Zeus, how is it you've seen it before? "Phat Girlz" - Two plus-sized ladies meet the men of their dreams in the most unexpected of ways.
  "Big & Beautiful" - A plus sized woman is convinced by her friends to attend to a
  weight loss/improvement resort where she experiences zany times
  and newfound love with a sexy personal trainer.
  Two different stories brother. SMH.

  @ Nadine, I didn't catch that... huuumm...wife...daughter? @ Choice, I see you like to mix it up. Deep drama (Brotherly Love), action flick (Alexus), and now a comedy. That transition has to be difficult for you and the actors, esp the male actors. The ladies seem to have it cover b/c I believe that's their background (comedy)? And while we're talking about the ladies, give Daffany a hug & a kiss for me b/c she sho' looks good to me. Anyway, writing comedy is a mean thang, man. Good luck and holla @ ol'CareyCarey if you need some honest feedback on the funny tip.

  The actress' name... ;).

  *LOL*... I didn't catch that either :-(. I just saw the name in the post (not the title) and went with you (at least I thought I was following you).

  OOps that should be Powell They're not married or related. Gonna have to fix that

  Maybe I was wrong. I was trying not to be too obvious. The first line says A.J. Skinner. I thought it was Powell.
