I think you kinda pinpointed the problem. You've yet to come to terms with not eating chocolate and the like.
IMO, the only way to achieve permenant weightloss is to finally decide that you are willing to give up the high calorie/high quantity/unhealthy foods and by doing so look at what you will be GAINING - a healthier, happier, more productive and active life. Try to switch your way of thinking around. Try not to look at it at what you will be losing (the food), but indeed what you will be GAINING. I will tell you that for me the first 2 -3 weeks were really, really hard. You've just got to get past them. Whatever it takes. Keep in mind it gets soooo much easier as you go on. The cravings will practically cease, you will start feeling better, looking better and seeing some results. This will propel you to go further and stay more commited. Hence seeing more results. It really, really is worth it. Hang in there. You CAN do this. You absolutely can.
