I’ve always loved to eat, but over the last year I’ve gained 10lbs and my clothes are tight. I know I’m eating too much but it’s because I feel like it’s the only joy and comfort I have these days. Any thoughts or ideas on how I can snap out of this?

I do intermittent fasting and it really helps me either maintain or lose depending on where I'm at. I agree with you that food or booze are kind of our only highlights right now. So I allow myself the foods I like. But I fast till dinner most days. I honestly prefer it. I know it's not for everyone. But I have a lot more energy all day. So, this is OMAD (one meal a day). But there are a ton of varieties of IF. What I particularly love though is there's no calorie counting, no bad foods. Eat what you crave to satiety, but in a particular window.
The only thing that worked for me was just stopping -- I stopped buying any snack foods, stopped eating frequent snacks during the day, aggressively cut calories, focused on eating veggies, fruit, tofu instead of meat. Had hit my highest weight ever on Memorial Day last year, am down almost 19 lbs since then. I'm able to have treats like chocolate, ice cream, cheese, etc., on the regular, because overall calorie load is so low now. It was brutal at first, I was hungry all the time, but I've acclimated and now that I weigh so much less I'm less hungry.
