00:00We're Lulu.
00:04Hello?
00:05I said I'm breaking up with you.
00:06Why?
00:08Come on.
00:09You know why.
00:11I'm Lulu.
00:12I'm 23.
00:13And I've always been bigger.
00:17You're too big.
00:23I don't mean big like personality.
00:25I mean big like, you know, fat.
00:30It never used to bother me, but recently it's been getting in the way.
00:38Look, Lulu, I'm just trying to help.
00:41You and me, we just don't belong together.
00:50So, today, everything changes.
01:00I'm going to get fit and throw my new body in Chad's face.
01:16It's time for a brand new, Lulu, bitches.
01:18Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
01:24Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
01:28Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
01:30Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
01:33Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
01:36Come on, Lulu.
01:38Okay, come on.
01:43Walk home, baby!
01:58Can I help you?
01:59Shane.
02:00Excuse me?
02:01Oh, sorry.
02:02I'm Shane, your neighbor from down there.
02:08Lulu, from right here.
02:12Saw you get dumped by your boyfriend yesterday.
02:17I brought you cookies.
02:20Seriously?
02:21What?
02:22Give the fat girl cookies.
02:23What a hilarious joke.
02:26Seriously?
02:27What?
02:27Give the fat girl cookies.
02:28What a hilarious joke.
02:31Fat?
02:32You know, you guys are all exactly the same.
02:35You go to the gym, like, once a week.
02:37You live off protein shakes and beer, and then one day, you wake up looking like that.
02:41Like, it's all so easy.
02:43Well, guess what?
02:44What?
02:45It's not.
02:46Not for women like me.
02:48And to add insult to injury, you bring these.
02:51Like, it isn't already hard enough to live up to society's impossible standards.
02:56Let me guess.
02:57You could probably eat two, three of these at a time.
02:59Probably more.
03:00Or probably more.
03:02Right.
03:03Well, enjoy them, then.
03:04Eat the whole box in one sitting for all I care.
03:07Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going for a run.
03:11Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
03:25Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
03:29Walk away, walk.
03:31Lulu.
03:31Walk away, walk on, baby.
03:33Lulu, wait up.
03:34Walk away, walk, walk away, walk on, baby.
03:37I'm sorry for what happened back there.
03:39I really didn't mean to hurt you.
03:41It's just, well, sweets always make me feel better when I'm down.
03:47I'm serious.
03:48My mom would always bring me cookies from Thompson's Bakery when I had a bad day.
03:53Like, when I flunked a test or lost a track meet, got my heart broken.
04:00That guy did to you last night.
04:03You don't deserve that.
04:05No one does.
04:06Caramel Crunch.
04:09Huh?
04:10You have to get the Caramel Crunch cookies at Thompson's.
04:13They're the best.
04:14But you have to go Wednesdays before the rush.
04:16So they're fresh.
04:18So you do like cookies.
04:20You could say that.
04:21I knew it.
04:23No, not because of that.
04:26It's just, who doesn't like cookies?
04:28They're universal.
04:30Like, uh, like puppies.
04:32Everyone likes puppies, right?
04:33But I'm allergic.
04:38But I get what you were trying to do.
04:41Really, it was sweet.
04:43I can't do this.
04:48Sure you can.
04:50It's easy.
04:52No, no.
04:53That's, that's not what I meant.
04:56Sorry.
04:57What I meant to say is, no one starts out being able to run a marathon or even a mile.
05:04You have to build up to it.
05:07Start slow.
05:09Walk before you run.
05:11And run a block.
05:12The next day, run three blocks.
05:14Before you know it...
05:15I'll be running a 5K.
05:17Exactly.
05:18People like me don't run 5Ks.
05:20Who told you that?
05:22Anyone can run a race, Lulu.
05:24The question is, do you want to?
05:26The old Lulu hated running.
05:31But the new Lulu?
05:33Yes.
05:34I do.
05:35Then I can help you.
05:37I'm a personal trainer.
05:39Of course you are.
05:41Look, I really can't...
05:43No, no, not as a client or as a neighbor and maybe even as a friend.
05:53What do you say?
05:56Do you want to take a walk with me?
05:59Brand new Lulu.
06:13No, no, not as a client or as a spouse.
06:32No, no, not as a client or as an student or as an assistant.
06:36Oh, no, not as a client or the student.
06:39Oh, no, not as a client or as a client or as an individual.
06:42May I?
07:02The trick is to not lean heavily on one foot or the other.
07:05But somewhere in between, until you find balance.
07:23You almost had it that time.
07:25Yeah, right.
07:26I'm serious.
07:28It's all about centering your mind.
07:31Silence.
07:32I wish.
07:35Yeah, I've got a lot on my mind, too.
07:39Yeah?
07:40Like what?
07:42Well, there's this girl.
07:47And you just met, but I feel like it's a perfect match.
07:53Yeah, what's she like?
08:00Well, she's smart, funny.
08:05She's got a great heart.
08:07There's no way.
08:08Could he be talking about me?
08:09Oh, crap.
08:14I'm waiting for my clients.
08:16Same time tomorrow?
08:18Sure.
08:19Okay, just remember, balance, balance, balance.
08:22I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a crush on Shane, but there's no way he could like me back, right?
08:30This morning, make sure you guys stay hydrated.
08:38Put the food in your body.
08:41And friends and family are still here on the site.
08:45You can do this.
08:47Brand new.
08:48Lou, is that you?
08:49What are you doing here?
08:53Hello to you, too, Chad.
08:55Not that it's any of your business, but I've been working out.
08:58You could have fooled me.
09:01Really?
09:03I'm signing up for the 5K.
09:05Why?
09:06Is there a box of cupcakes over the finish line?
09:11Wait.
09:12Is this about what I said the other day?
09:13Are you trying to impress me?
09:17Because, Lulu, I thought I was clear.
09:20Guys like us, we're never going to go for someone like you.
09:27You're just never going to look like...
09:30that.
09:37It's just a fact.
09:40Baby, wait up.
09:41Where are you going?
09:41We're doing what you guys do for us each day
09:46so we can live the way we live.
09:48Got the big rock wall back there for tonight.
09:56It's good.
10:03Maybe Chad's right.
10:05I'm just the same old Lulu.
10:08I'll never have that kind of body,
10:10no matter how hard I try.
10:14And Shane?
10:19A guy like Shane would never go for a girl like me.
10:22I don't know.
10:52Lulu, please, talk to me.
11:10When you didn't show up or text me back, I got worried.
11:14But then I remembered, today's Wednesday.
11:16So I went to Thompson's and got those caramel crunch cookies you were talking about, and...
11:20Why are you doing this?
11:21Because I want to help you.
11:22You're taunting me.
11:24Taunting you?
11:25I can't eat those.
11:26And I can't do this anymore.
11:28Why?
11:29I'm big, Shane.
11:31And not big as in personality, big as in fat.
11:34Who told you that?
11:35Your ex?
11:36Everyone.
11:38My whole life.
11:39I thought I could change.
11:41I thought I could become a brand new person and run that race.
11:44But I can't.
11:47I'm always going to be the same old Lulu.
11:48Running the race was never about you losing weight or changing.
11:52It was about you being confident in the person you are.
11:55And I like that person, Lulu.
11:57Isn't that obvious?
11:58You and me, we don't belong together, Shane.
12:01Do you really think that?
12:03Look, I can't force you to like me.
12:07I can't even force you to like yourself.
12:09That has to come from you.
12:10What do you want, Lulu?
12:12Well, when you figure it out, let me know.
12:29Let's start over.
12:30I'm Lulu.
12:31I'm 23, and I've always been a bit bigger.
12:35It never used to bother me, but lately, my self-confidence has taken a bit of a blow.
12:47But Shane is right.
12:49I'm tired of letting other people tell me what I'm worth.
12:52Because the truth is, I'm never going to look like her.
13:10And that's okay.
13:12You can look for me, baby, you know that
13:18I've been the distance, so I won't have that
13:23So what I have, what I give, I'll decide
13:27I've been the distance, so I won't have that
13:32Don't try to fight me
13:57I'll turn you down flat
13:59I've been the distance, so I won't have that
14:03So what I have, what I give, I'll decide
14:08I've been the distance, so I won't have that
14:12I finally think I found the thing I was looking for all along
14:42Not the old Lulu, or the new Lulu, but
14:48Balance
14:50You
14:59Excuse me
15:01I want you
15:03You sure?
15:05Positive
15:05Positive
15:06I'm sorry for shutting you out before
15:07You were right
15:09I should like me
15:10And I do
15:11I do like me
15:12You were right
15:14I should like me
15:15And I do
15:16I do like me
15:17And I like you too
15:20Did you make these?
15:32I sort of got back into baking
15:34It was a hobby of mine before, well, before Chad
15:38They're sort of amazing
15:39What else don't I know about you?
15:42Well, I've been working out
15:44I actually really like running
15:46And, look
15:47Wow, someone's ready for the 5K
15:52What?
15:55I sort of miss sign-ups
15:56Well, I sort of have an idea
15:59Ooh, our roads lead me back to you
16:08In the middle of the night
16:12I wake up from a dream
16:14With pictures of you still in my mind
16:20From the bottom of my heart
16:24I feel you pulling me
16:27Back to the day we said goodbye
16:31And you know I'll never let you down
16:36Cause, boy, I need you now
16:39I'm on the way
16:41Baby, I'm in trouble not to see your smiling face
16:46It's the only thing that pulls me through
16:50Even when I find myself a million miles away
16:58Don't you know our roads lead me back to you
17:03Ooh, our roads lead me back to you
17:09How was that?
17:23Sweet
17:24Yeah?
17:24Mm-hmm
17:25But that was sweet
17:33I know you'll never let me down
17:36Cause, boy, I need you now
17:39I'm on my way
17:41You
