Anne Marie Thrives

Book: Diary of a Fat and Mourning Post Pandemic Woman

IIf you’ve been mourning life’s losses and are seeking comfort, healing, and a fresh start, this book is for you. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us have faced profound loss, change, mental health challenges, and the need for deeper self-care.

Through portions of my personal diary, I share my journey of grieving my brother, navigating changes in my body, mind, and life, and finding peace and purpose again. My hope is that my story will give you strength to move forward, embrace a new perspective, heal internal pain, improve your relationship with your body and mind, and rediscover hope for a victorious, abundant life.
