Q: W: Oh, thanks. I got into that wedding dress with great difficulty. It was too small. M: Why didn't you get one your size? W: Oh, it was my grandmother's - my mother wore it on her wedding day, and I really wanted to wear it on mine. I suffered for six months so I could wear it. M: How did you do it? W: Do you know this diet that many actors are doing? I don't think it's very healthy if you do it for a long time, but it really works. M: I think meat is not allowed in your diet. W: No, actually, you can eat things like, um, roast chicken, steak, and bacon, but you can't eat any bread and butter. M: Is it the diet that you love but have to avoid? W: That's right. Dieting is so boring. Hopefully, I won't need to wear the wedding dress again anyway. What was said before this conversation?
