I truly know how you feel. Sugary, fatty and easy convenience food is an addiction for me, and trying to reduce how much I eat is really difficult, so I'm just trying to reduce it slowly to give myself a chance at not freaking out.
I've found that posting online is a good way to stay accountable as it's not just me who can see what I'm doing, random people can too and that makes me want to try harder. Otherwise keeping a journal could help? Writing down the times you eat, how you're feeling before you eat and what you ate, can help you spot patterns in behaviour that could be worked on.
The problem with food and weight, is that food is never the real problem as it's usually a reaction to something else.
I hope that this site makes you feel like you aren't alone with this.
