Summary

Laura's got a few pounds to lose, nothing major, so she joins the local slimming class, Nu-You.

Psycho Kassie and her two morbidly obese friends are livid.

They have been struggling for years.

Battling obesity.

The worst thing for them is people who don't look overweight blazing in all optimistic and raring to go.

They want to educate her on the definition of over-indulgence. Could there be such a thing as death by chocolate?

Short, fun, and just a splash of brutal.

This short had an interesting story that it told, one that I could see having a foundation of truth to these groups and how toxic I’d imagine some can be.
Matthew Cash paces this one well, and although I’d have liked a little more detail and background here and there it does move along at a healthy pace, that more of that detail and background might have disrupted.
I really enjoyed how the ending played out and was written, anytime a writer can make me go ‘ewwww’ is always a win for me.

Overall, this is short, and fun, with just a pinch of brutal to balance it out.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
