Listen to episode 58:
"I just couldn't stop, I was so ashamed": Zippi

February 20, 2022

Zippi says that she was born with a "fatal attraction" to sugar. No amount of sugar was enough for her.
When she moved to Israel and became a nurse, she knew all the theory and the caloric value of different foods.

So, as a nurse, the problem wasn't the knowledge. 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. With the help of a 12-step program, Zippi got the type of support and help she needed. For the first time in her life she started abstaining from sugar and white flour.

Her recovery had started. She started losing weight without feeling like she was on a diet.

With her experience and knowledge, she researched the science behind food addiction and became a food addiction counsellor.

Now Zippi helps food addicts in Israel who eat kosher with her science-based educational program.
