Edie Middlestein is 59 years old, she weighs 300 pounds and she's eating herself into the grave. Everyone who knows her - including her own children Robin and Benny - agrees she is a tough woman to love, but no-one expects her husband Richard to walk out on her after 30 years of marriage. As Robin and Benny close ranks against their father in an attempt to save their mother, the fault-lines in their own lives threaten to crack wide open; can Benny learn to stand up to his neurotic wife Rachelle? Will Robin drop her defences long enough to repair her relationship with her mother and allow love into her own life?
