Write a journal about what is triggering temptations, and then come up with ways to interrupt.
e.g. here are common temptations and tips
* Someone passing out donuts? Say you're gluten free (same with birthday cake,etc).
* Do you walk by the snack drawer? either change your route, or grab something calorie free like gum or water
* Are snacks at your desk? throw them out. The easier you can reach food, the more you eat.
* Try fasting once in a while -- you will learn the sensation of physical hunger vs mental (habitual) hunger. Physical hunger means hunger pangs and headaches.
* Drink a pint of water with psyllium husks 30 minutes before every meal. This will train you to get full off smaller portions.
* If you are truly hungry (hunger pangs, headaches), eat fatty & protein rich foods.
Eventually you will reach a mental equilibrium where you are eating what you need. But willpower doesn't work--you have to treat your body like a dog and train it through conditioning
