Welcome to Litsy!

All her life, Fiona Madsen has dreamed of becoming a dancer-a dream that was shattered on her seventh birthday when her mom told her that dancing was not for "fat girls" like her. Now, at age thirty-five, Fiona is again confronted with her weight issues when the HR department at work kindly encourages her to attend a support group for people with health problems. Here, she connects with Skinny Stu from accounting and realizes the two of them have more in common than she could ever imagine. To address their issues, Stu suggests the two sign up for a Dancing With the Local Stars competition. After much deliberation and soul searching, Fiona says yes and together they-Fat Fiona and Skinny Stu-embark on a journey that will change their lives forever. But they must overcome one major obstacle first... Fiona's sister, who's running for mayor, finds out about the competition and threatens to have Fiona disqualified.Will Fiona withdraw from the competition to protect her sister's reputation or will she follow her childhood dream of becoming the ultimate Dancing Queen? The story-set in everyday life in Seattle-is a story of hope and finding the courage to be happy with who you are instead of who others think you are.
