Confidently Curvy — Anne Clark

It's 2010. Ellie Johnstone is single again, after divorcing Darren, the husband who thought 'Porker' was an acceptable term of endearment. With the encouragement of her close girlfriends Zoë and Lauren, and old friend Paul, she picks herself back up and throws herself into living life as a single woman again. Ellie loves her work, and it helps to take her mind off her chilly flat, complete lack of love life and the irritating media obsession with Kate Middleton's pre-wedding diet. But despite the distractions, Ellie has one big problem; when it comes to feeling confident in herself and her plus-size body, she pretends to be happy but really isn't. Joining a dating site doesn't help at all, and it feels as if everyone from Ayurvedic doctors to online strangers have an opinion on her body. When a chance introduction to the enigmatic Diane turns Ellie's world upside down, she begins to see things – including herself - differently, but not everyone is on board with the new Ellie. Can she really change her life, learn to love herself and rebel against the diet industry without alienating the people she loves or losing her job?
