I need advice - Food Addiction

I want to lose weight but I’m really struggling. I’ve been trying to be mindful with food (eating when hungry, stopping when not) but this practice has just made me realize how much of a compulsive eater I am. For example, right now, I’m not hungry, in fact m I’m quite full, however I know there are a couple slices of leftover pizza in the fridge and I want to eat them. Even though I know m I’m full, I don’t need food, I just want to eat them. When I’m eating a big plate of food, I know the exact moment when I’m full and should not eat more, but then I make the conscious decision to keep going and I don’t know why! I known I’m full, I don’t need more food, it’ll just make me feel shitty if I keep eating, but I feel almost this compulsive need to keep eating. And the more I try to fight it, the more I binge it seems.

I just don’t know what to do anymore. It feels like my body is just working against me. I’m not being overly restrictive with myself, I’m not classifying “good foods” and “bad foods”, all I want is that when I realize I’m full, I stop eating. And I’m even able to realize I’m full but I just can’t seem to stop eating.

All I can think about right now is that pizza in the fridge and it’s driving me crazy, I know I’m gonna go eat it later because I just can’t seem to help myself. My lack of self control drives me crazy.

Is there anyone else dealing with this who’s been able to overcome it? I really need some help.
