I'm in DBT therapy to help change my relationship with food. It's a behavior change method that gives strategies to deal with emotions and practice mindfulness. I think it's helping. I talk mainly about my relationship with food and emotional eating in therapy and I do reading and practice certain steps and techniques throughout the week. I definitely won't hurt to start talking about your relationship with food in therapy.

Yes, if it is a problem, you should consider therapy or perhaps Overeaters Anonymous to learn coping mechanisms.

At this stage, the "wrong food" is likely to make you feel crappy. Take advantage of that!

I also strongly encourage you to get some bariatric cookbooks so that you can try new recipes in order to stay away from the foods you used to eat.
