I have some discipline issues when it comes to diet. Any tips?

The diet where you tell yourself something and you stick to your word. Write yourself a contract, set yourself some solid short term and long term goals. There are no shortcuts when it comes to facing the demons in your life, it's going to be hard work, you are going to be tempted, feel like shit and want to give up.

When you don't give up and you see it through, the pride you will feel will make it all worth it.

Simplify your diet. Chicken, broccoli, eggs, beans, veggies, beef, oats etc. Learn some basic recipes that are quick, have minimal clean up and can be done in bulk so you can eat them over a few days.

I have used Keto to cut 70+ lbs , it's changed my relationship with food Drastically and I too was using food as a means of providing myself comfort . Lifting helped , Keto helped, but I also became good at finding healthy alternatives to things I'd eat. Depending on any food plans you have I would look for diet - appropriate alternatives to things you find yourself cheating to eat and that way when you want something you eat the alternative, even if the macros are a little excessive you reduce the damage the food does and also get some level of satisfaction from the food . Reward eating is bad no matter what though so I wouldn't make a habit out of even eating the best alternative food you might find .

Food can be an addiction as much as anything, especially sugar. Here is a blog post that explains this concept: http://movingstronglyforward.typepad.com/moving_strongly_forward/2009/03/real-food-sugar-addiction-and-freedom.html

Man, I payed for it. Literally.

Expensive nutritionist, high end supplementation optimized for cutting, and a personal trainer for two months. The whole thing expensive enough to make a dent in my pocket and I wouldn't lay it to waste.
It worked out wonders, the effects were quick to see so it was stimulating.

Track everything in fatsecret.com.. Drink 2L+ a day, maybe 4L+ if you can handle it.

Look for cheap alternatives for common meat. Example eggs are cheap, same with potatos. Ground up pork sirlion at $2 a lb is cheap too.

Might as well save money and lose weight, it's a 2 for 1.
