I love to eat too. I just want to shovel it into my face until I feel full. A part of my brain really does seem to think that more = better.
I've lately started to eat really big salads. I start with some of that packed salad mix, then add thawed frozen peas, sliced radishes and carrots, sometimes sliced beets, raisins, celery, and/or cucumbers. Then I add a few tablespoons of reduced calorie dressing, and crumble up a few whole wheat crackers on top.
The end result does have a few calories, yes, but not compared to the bulk of what I am eating. Just the fact that it takes me a while to mow through this creation really does help satisfy my "got eat and eat big!" urges.
I don't know that this would help you, but you might want to give it a shot.
