* Made: 2008

Pretty, charming, and weight-challenged (at least as she sees it) LORI MADISON (Amber Benson) is a month shy of the big 3-0 when her life implodes. Losing her job, her New York apartment, and her boyfriend in a single day, she goes home to a Colorado resort town to stay with her bigger-than-life mother and supportive brother until she finds some direction. In her childhood bedroom, Lori discovers a list she made as a kid — "7 Things To Do Before I’m 30" — and realizes she hasn’t accomplished a single item. So she looks to the past to provide a map to her future, resolving to do everything on the list...with only one month to go before her thirtieth birthday. In the process — through adventures comical, romantic, and daring — she gains confidence, finds her true romance, and resolves a long-standing emotional issue with her mother, whom she’s blamed for her lifelong weight problems. Ultimately, Lori not only becomes the person she’d always hoped to be, but discovers she’s actually been that person all along and just had to open her eyes.
