Cathy Alter

At thirty-seven years old, Cathy Alter is still treading a path paved with bad decisions, junk food, unpaid bills and too many unsuitable men.

one failed marriage is already behind her, so Cathy's wish list is not too long, it could actually be reduced to just a few pointers: a decent partner, a nicer apartment, food with more protein and less carbohydrates. When she realizes that her every desire could be a headline in one of the women's magazines, Cathy will embark on a crazy year-long experiment. All the solutions and advice you need are literally screaming from the front pages, so it shouldn't be difficult to put your life in order. It should just be left in the hands of clever magazine editors. By unquestioningly following their advice, Cathy will get out of the red in a year, ask for a raise, organize the perfect evening party and find a better apartment. The muscles that will begin to be visible do not even need to be mentioned.
