A snacking or food reward habit is hard to shift, so you could replace the food reward with something less calorific / slightly less tasty, until it is more manageable?
Protein bars, protein yoghurts, fruit, cans of diet fizzy drink.
Sure it might be processed, artificial sweeteners etc, but on balance healthier than a slab of rocky road / brownie. -
As a fellow pastry lover I feel you!
I basically try to get my hit from protein bars. Surely Meta have some good ones?
I also have a ton of snack a jacks, apples and pears because these can be a quick snack for few calories that hit the dopamine reward

Checking myself in this year
170cm and hit 84kg post Christmas
Goal is 76kg for June 1st, starting beginning of Feb
2kg/mo target
Its almost all diet for me, I'm stronger than I've ever been but not 'fit'.
I need to cut pastries and cakes from ~10-14/week to max 2 as a treat. Really struggle with the mental aspect of not rewarding myself with food on an average work day with nothing else going on.
