The model Bridget Malcom already eats quietly. The young woman who modeled for the popular Victoria's Secret brand can finally say that she is no longer afraid of food.

The 27-year-old Australian is recovering from a serious anorexia, a condition about which she shared some reflections along with some photos on her Instagram account in which she compares her situation at her worst moment and today.

In the photo caption of the snapshots, the girl assures that she fell into the clutches of this terrible eating disorder because she was rejected by a recognized client, whom she does not identify.

"The reason they rejected me was [that they said] 'Bridget's body doesn't look good enough,'" the model wrote, adding that the most surprising thing of all is that the same client had hired her when her hips they were half an inch less.

The young woman explained that in the photos in which she is seen to be extremely thin, she had been without menstruation for months and had to sleep about 12 hours at night to have enough energy to function.

The Australian said on her website that the demanding modeling industry considered that the hips could not be more than 35 inches wide, but that in the case of her body, her natural proportions were one inch more. That forced her to take extreme measures.

“Some models maintain that requirement effortlessly. I am not one of those girls. That certainly has been a huge burden on me for the past 14 years as a model,”she said.

Fortunately, he realized his poor health, reacted and began to combat the disorder he suffered from, reported People.

“I am so grateful that all of this was in the past. It has taken me a lot of work and recovery, but I appreciate that there is a place for me in the industry now, at my healthy weight,”wrote Malcom, who has since returned to work.

Likewise, she was grateful that having been rejected by one of her most recognized clients led her to begin her recovery and a year after starting her treatment, she assured that she is no longer afraid of food.

My health is my highest priority. If my work got in the way of my health, then I would retire from modeling,”she revealed.
