That is two years in a row that I have gotten the same gift. Sick. Although this year it’s just a bad cold, not a full blown deathbed flu. Sooo… yay, that’s cool. The positive thing about this cold though is it will force me to relax. The holidays are great and all, but it’s no vacation. This cold will keep me on the couch wrapped up in my new fuzzy soft PJs and ultra fluffy blankets for the whole day. My baby basset’s are happy little fellas. I know, because I overheard them talking over the phone with their friends about how they got everything they wanted. Their lists were considerably small this year, so it wasn’t hard. I guess that’s a sign of growing up. This morning I woke up kinda late. No 2am shooting out of bed worried whether or not the Elf on The Shelf made it back okay. The baby basset’s said their long goodbyes to him on Christmas Eve. Until next year Sanual.

Twenty-seven-year-old Rachel Stern is in a rut. Despite her mother’s best efforts, she is still single. At two-hundred and forty-two pounds, she still lives at home, the victim of a constantly-cooking Jewish mother whose force-feeding techniques have become legendary.

As if that isn’t bad enough, Rachel’s Friday and Saturday evenings are spent with her parents and her Saturday mornings consist of wedding gown shopping with her also single best friend. She is clearly going nowhere. But at least she’s not alone. Until her best friend snags a boyfriend.

Finally, unable to stand herself and her weight problem anymore, Rachel signs up for Weight Watchers.

Finnegan Schwartz, a young man who has already been successful at the Weight Watchers program, having lost a hundred pounds, champions Rachel and becomes her impromptu weight loss coach and newest friend. Rachel soon learns there’s so much more to this funny and shy guy who she’d overlooked before.

Amid her mother’s overzealous attempts to fix her up, bizarre family dinners and crises that threaten to unravel the entire Stern family, will Rachel be able to find something she’s never thought was hers for the taking: self-acceptance?
