At the risk of un-funning the meme, this is hard as hell. Took some health issues to snap me out of it and start taking care of myself. I know some folks that aren't stopped by health issues. Food addiction really sucks and erodes your willingness to deny it. Consent is a small part of the picture, though important.
They say quitting smoking is very hard, but quitting food abuse is harder.
I quit smoking years ago. It was rough, but at least I never need to smoke another cigarette for the rest of my life. It's a lot easier to maintain "never" than to maintain "daily but not too much".
