20 Pounds to Happiness

Written by Sundance Audience Award-winning writer Josefina López (Real Women Have Curves, both film and Broadway versions), this crowd-pleasing romcom follows a full-figured Latina who must decide between staying loyal to her girlfriends or risk losing the man of her dreams.

20 Pounds to Happiness is about a full figured Latina who joins a Real Women Have Curves Support Group to cope with her mother’s criticism. However, when faced with the decision of whether or not to get gastric bypass surgery with her renegade friends from the support group, she discovers that the man she’s fallen in love with is against the surgery. Will she disappoint her friends who were counting on her for the group deal on surgery, or miss out on moving in with the man of her dreams who wants her to keep her curves?
