What do you think of food addiction? Do you think it's a real thing? I feel that I'm an addict because it truly affects my mood when I can't have what I want. Some people have told me that I will struggle with this the rest of my life and that's what I'm scared of... What do you think? You have some insightful thoughts.

Thanks for your replies! And yes, thanks for pointing out that I did not state the advice I got correctly. I meant complex carbs - the bad ones like cookies, pasta, bread... all the things I love. I pretty much can't have anything refined/processed. I've been told sugar and bread are the devil. The reason for this is that…

Thank you all for your feedback! Are there any other options than weighing your food and calorie counting? It seems really tedious! What are meals that you usually eat? And another thing... what do you do about self control????
