Lbs. plot

Neil Perota is 27 years old, still lives with his parents in Brooklyn, weighs about 150 pounds and is addicted to food. Two days before his sister's wedding, he has a heart attack. Result: the wedding is rescheduled and the gentleman has to go on a diet. However, Neil continues to overeat and seeks help from his childhood friend Sacco, a junkie, to cheat on his diet. When his new brother-in-law catches Neil two months later, the truth is revealed. Embarrassed, Neil decides to do things differently. He leaves the city and takes up residence in a dilapidated mobile home to lose pounds there. After a short while, Sacco shows up at the door, who has also decided to get rid of his addiction, and moves in with Neil. But is that a good idea?
