Lying to Be Perfect is a made-for-television movie from Lifetime based on the novel The Cinderella Pact by Sarah Strohmeyer.
[1] By day, Nola Devlin (Poppy Montgomery) is an unassuming, frumpy magazine editor who is overlooked and teased by her co-workers.
When the sun sets and she is behind the glow and anonymity of her computer screen, she becomes the famous and reclusive advice columnist Belinda Apple.
Nola's friends, tired of being overworked and overweight, band together to create the Cinderella Pact, vowing to lose weight by following the advice of their fairy godmother, Belinda Apple.
But, as her group of friends drop dress sizes, their real issues are exposed, and better-than-expected life changes begin to blossom.
