Jennica Garcia took to Instagram her explanation and thanked everyone who has expressed their concern about her health and body weight.
Kapuso actress Jennica Garcia expressed her gratitude to everyone who showed their concern about her weight yesterday, July 11.
The Las Hermanas actress uploaded a throwback photo with her fellow Kapuso actress Chynna Ortaleza and Chariz Solomon and explained her weight loss in a lengthy post.
Jennica wrote in the caption, “I understand your worry about my weight. My father became worried about it too so he brought me to the hospital last April to get an overall check up and results were normal.
“My Ninay and I discovered that my heart is smaller than how it should be when I was only 7 years old that is why it is not unusual for me to faint/collapse when feeling an extreme emotion crying/excitement but again, other than that, everything is normal.”
The 31-year-old actress also had a funny recollection of her throwback photo with Chynna and Chariz back in 2009.
“Here's a photo of myself with @chynsortaleza and @chariz_solomon from year 2009. As you can see mukha kaming tatlong kawayan. Kawayan pa rin po kami ngayon,” shared Jennica.
She revealed that all of them still have the same body frame even after giving birth to their children.
“I am not underweight. I do not exercise or follow a diet either to be in the body shape that I am in. Last time I exercised, hindi pa po ako nanay,” shared Jennica.
“My 'kain tayo' post where I shared a photo of my meal before.. Hindi po konti yun. Yun ang pagkain ng lahat ng tao dito sa Las Hermanas.”
The celebrity mom also shared that the entire production feeds them well.
“Kung mukha po akong may abs, baka shadow lang po yun dahil magpapaturo pa lang ako kay @faithdasilva_,” shared Jennica.
“Kung anong exercise pwede kong gawin, August ko pa po sisimulan dahil catching up po ako with school work + quality time with my children before I enter the bubble taping on July 28 again kaya di ko po magawan ng oras ang pag eherisyo,” she added.
The former Impostora actress also shared that she should consume more vegetables as she tends to eat food that is high in cholesterol.
“Kailangan talaga mag-exercise kahit po payat not for weight loss but to live longer at makasabay sa mga physical activities ng ating mga anak,” shared Jennica.
She added, “Thank you for all your concern, sadyang dumadami lang po yung nag-aalala kaya naisipan ko pong ipaliwanag para isahan nalang. Salamat po!”
Actress Kris Bernal replied to Jennica's post and wrote, “I can relate”
