Hi my name is Jacenta, I am a 32 year old mom of a beautiful 6 year old daughter. I have a history of bulimia and anorexia but have recovered and am staying strong! I have had various trauma in my past and have ptsd, depression at times and have chronic body pain (mostly in my lower back). I am an army medic veteran and wish I was in shape like I was back then lol. I am overweight at 175lbs which I feel so uncomfortable with. My goal is to be at 140lbs Thanks for reading and hope to meet some great people to help motivate each other!
