In Cooking for Harry, fabulous cook Harry learns that he is going to have to lose the weight he has put on over the years of learning to be the gourmand he is. His wife, Francie, convinces him to let her take over the cooking and for him to join a weight-loss club. Soon, Harry is on the road to a slimmer self but between taking more initiative at work and spending more time working out and with his weight loss group, not only is he no longer in the kitchen, he is never home! Francie is confused by the dynamics of this new relationship, and is worried about the attention her newly svelte husband is getting.
