She developed anorexia and bulimia in her attempts to improve her physical image, and started a web page, "Me como a mí", encouraging other girls to embrace those disorders.
The book was a huge success and she was interviewed on radio and TV, including Almorzando con Mirtha Legrand.
During those interviews she met the journalist Rolando Graña and they fell in love, despite having a 25-year age gap.
She sold them again, and then the book was adapted into an eponymous film in 2015, starring María Eugenia Suárez, as Latini.
She praised the work of the actors and directors and observed that the book had a greater focus on eating disorders than the film.
