The Fat And The Thin Of It

jackie and jill are two, lifelong friends who are now in their fifties’. jackie’s a dedicated housewife and mother whose husband works abroad and is absent for the majority of the time. jill, on the other hand, is a driven workaholic and is the one who is absent the majority of the time. their lives are poles apart, their bodies are on opposite sides of the scales, and they suddenly find themselves in two completely different and turbulent situations. two things they share, however; fierce loyalty for one another and an excessive preoccupation for their bmi. two women in the late summer of their lives who should be looking forward to a peaceful autumn and cosy winter are forced to face new lifestyles. can they survive the change, and more importantly, will their friendship survive the change?
