Not to mention how Bruce capitalizes on this trope with his "Loving a Larger Woman" column.
Big Beautiful Woman: A plot point in the novel, as Cannie becomes incredibly self-conscious about her weight, enters a weight loss program in an attempt to shed it, and has memories of thinking that it possibly contributed to her father deserting her family. Acrofatic: Cannie and her mother are both large women, but both are very athletic and take regular walks, Cannie even competed in sports. Shapiro fills this trope he was a loving yet absent-minded father at first and then around the time Cannie hit puberty, he became more insulting to his wife (towards her weight and sexuality), Cannie (telling her she's fat and ugly), Cannie's younger sister (calling her stupid), and the youngest brother (because he was "babyish"). She notes that Cannie didn't take nude photos of him, while he was out of it, which proves she's a good person. Above the Influence: Lampshaded by Maxi, after Cannie brings Adrian Stadt to her house, to recover after passing out. Published in 2001, Good in Bed is the debut novel of Jennifer Weiner. Some things get better, some things get worse, but overall, Cannie begins to chart a new course for her life. 
But, from there, Cannie undergoes a journey that takes her from Philadelphia to Hollywood and back.
Unfortunately for her, their next sexual encounter leaves her pregnant, which causes her a dilemma. And one day, that certain guy, following a break, publishes an article entitled "Loving a Larger Woman"-which leads a (more) self-conscious Cannie to try rekindling their romance. But, then again, there's that fact that her father walked out on her when she was younger, her mother coming out of the closet with a rather unpleasant girlfriend, and an incident with a certain guy she thought was the one. She has a decent job, is fairly successful, and owns an adorable rat terrier named Nifkin. Candace "Cannie" Shapiro is a journalist at the Philadelphia Examiner, and her life seems fairly straightforward.
