I agree with Whiff about joining another thread, the ladies over there are extremely helpful and super-friendly! I've been in your shoes for some time and I motivated myself with the trick my DD told me about: I've printed out my own photo and put it on the fridge. My daughter used Photoworks photo program to make me look thinner and this "thinner" version of myself was my motivation and it gave me strength to stay away from the sweets. I also think the problem arises from you avoiding any sugar for quite a long time, try to limit it but don't turn off of it completely, or your body will backfire you with this compulsive episodes of consuming sugar.
