In the much anticipated follow-up to Once In A Lifetime, full-figured caterer Velma Brighton is her own worst critic. She is constantly comparing herself to her thin, beautiful sister who seems to have everything, including a man who loves her. When her sister's wedding day arrives, Velma is overwhelmed with insecurity and loneliness. Worse yet, the gown she will have to wear as maid of honor shows all of her curves. What will Russ Harrington, the man who makes her heart race, think when he escorts her down the aisle? Little does she know that Russ is deeply attracted to her and her curves but her lack of self-confidence makes him think twice. Once he backs off, Velma believes her weight is to blame and sets out to shed the extra pounds. But will she lose Russ's affections in the process?
