My name is Jenny and i`m 27 years old. I`m from Venezuela so, if my english is not the best please remember my primary language is spanish.

When i was 13 years old or so my granmother get obsessed to make me a model (yeah, right) so she forces me to made a lot of workouts and a very restricted diet. I used to wake up at 5 am, work out, school from 7 to 3 pm, modeling classes from 4 to 7, more workout from 8 to 9 and model practice at home from 9:30 to 11 or so.

My mom wasn`t at home and i`m a single parent child so my granma was in charge. She used to give me food only when my mom was at home and i didn`t supposed to touch it (she used to beat me when i eat). I wasn`t good enought. I used to eat just breakfast and that`s it, if i ate, there will be consequences.

I did that until i had 17 years old and ki ran away from home. I gained some weight but i was on the normal side until a couple years ago. I used to weight about 58 kg (127 lbs) and in three months i reached 86 kg (189 lbs).

I developed a gluten resistance and i didn`t knew. I control the gluten and that part is ok, i`m not feeling sick or anything but the weight still the same since then.

I`m kinda excercise phobiac since my childhood but i`m willing to try.
