She knew what to do. The problem was applying that knowledge.She felt so ashamed, like something was seriously wrong with her, because she wanted to eat healthy, she wanted to lose weight, but she was doing exactly the opposite.It harmed her self-esteem and her self-image.When Zippi realized that she was addicted to food - more specifically junk food - it was like a light went on.
