Deep down I think she knows that JP is just not into her, so coupled with clinging on to having a boyfriend of any kind, and terrified of how much work it will be to dig herself out of this weight issue hole, she just eats her feelings even more. Millions of numpties think people with weight issues like Becky should just eat less and exercise, but it’s always a much bigger issue that needs to be solved before the weight can let go. There would be hardly any obese people if thats all they had to do in their lives. It’s a bit like telling chronically depressed people to go for a walk and phone a friend.
