There is only one thing that causes me weight problems and I am addicted to it - common everyday garden variety milk. I cannot stand iced coffee or sweetened or flavoured milk. I am trying to restrict myself to a litre a day but the weather here is very hot and humid at the moment and I am failing miserably. I don't think I will ever suffer from a calcium defiency.
As a retired Chef, I can say that most of you posting to this thread are trapped in what I would call the fat, sugar, preservatives cycle of weight gain. These are the three things most Americans fall for the most. It happens because the food industry in the US has used science to cause you to want more of these three things in your diet because like Nicotine, they are addictive to most people. In culinary schools, cooks are taught that fat and sugar sells better than salt and sour so most foods in restaurants are loaded with these two ingredients. But here is my personal observation: the real culprit in weight gain for most Americans, and indeed most humans has become the preservatives we eat even in so called "fresh" vegetables available in the US. All those beautiful fruits and veges you buy in super markets have been drenched in preservatives to keep them looking good longer. Every bag of chips is laden with preservatives, as is every carton of icecream, etc. etc. The list, as you must realize is endless. Salad bars in restaurants have become major sources of preservatives.
Now, a brief story that happens to be true: I was once 285lbs., because as a chef, I was tempted constantly to sample everything going out of the kitchen, plus I was eating my regular meals. I don't really drink, and have never smoked, so neither of those addictions are relavant in my case. I'm 6' 4", and all that weight was killing me. I had no time to exercise, so I began a serious diet, and after 18 months of struggle, I had dropped 40lbs., then stopped losing, no matter what I tried to get through that plateau. My partner and I retired that year, and decided to leave the US to live in Colombia, South America, because the economics of living on Social Security in the US and maintaining our lifestyle looked impossible.
Once in Bogotá, we discovered there was a different way of eating. Colombia doesn't use preserved foods at all. Vegetables from the farmer's market where we shop are as they come from the fields. Canned foods are scarce, and expensive, because most are imported. To the point: I began to lose weight dramatically. The only difference in my food intake, has been the absence of preservatives. I still eat all the fat and sugar I want, but now I'm down to what doctors tell me is my normal weight for a man my size which is 200 lbs., I have to say that I believe it is the addiction to preservatives that caused me to gain up to 285lbs. in the first place.
The solution, and I know it will be difficult in the US, is to do as much as possible to eliminate preservatives from you foods. I believe you will lose weight without trying so hard.
Really wash the vegetables well before cooking them. Try to select meats, fish, and fowl, that are organic if you can, and check the packaging for additives. Avoid snack foods if possible because they are very loaded with presrvatives for a long shelf life.
Then ask these questions: Why isn't there a movement in the Food and Drug Administration to reduce or remove preservatives from our foods? Could it be because the food industry is a major lobby in Washington? Why does it sometimes take months for "fresh" vegetables to reach the supermarket from the farmer's fields with total loss of nutrition value? Why does an apple have no seeds? (The answer to that is because it was picked whle still immature and green and kept in cold storage and preservatives for years until its time came for distribution when it was bathed in gasses that caused it to turn red and pleasing to the eye so you would buy it. Remember Alladar, and how it poisoned people. It was the apple preservative of choice.) The food industry is the problem, not your metbolisms.
I was a chef in Restaurants in Kansas City, and Los Angeles until I retired.
Good luck

I don't generally diet, as my weight has always been in check. Still, nothing gets in the way of me and pizza.

Totti Pepperoni Pizza on a Deep Pan base from Dominos Pizza.
Large servings of Vanilla Coke.
Triple pattie cheeseburger with an EXTRA PATTIE on topm of that, with cheese and bacon added from Maccas.
All you can eat buffet at Pizza Hut. It's really the choc mouse and soft serve icecream on unlimited tap that does me in there.
Boneless Chicken pieces from KFC. In Oz they only put these out sparingly, but when they do I literally gorge myself on them.
Choc thickshakes from Maccas.
Bacon Double Cheeseburger Deluxe large combos from Hungry Jacks.
Toasted samwitch with bacon, scrambled eggs and melted cheddar.
Whipped Cream in the can. Eaten straight from it by shoving the nozel in my mouth and let rip.

Bread is always my downfall. I can only eat so much salad before I have to have a sammich; yogurt and banana breakfasts only go so far before I have to have a bagel or toast or a bear-claw of four successive bowls of Cinnamon Life.
Then of course, there's candy, any kind of candy (I'll even eat licorice allsorts, I'm the only person I know who will). I can stay away from it for months at a time, but if it's here in the house, it somehow finds its way into my mouth.
LaloGS's observations make a lot of sense. I was just talking the same topic over with a coworker who'd lived for three years in Brazil and lost all kinds of weight, and though she's not eating very differently (except for less meat), she's put on a few pounds since she came back Stateside... she's still rail-thin, but it's all relative.
So what shall we all do? Go live in South America? I don't speak Spanish and can't bear temperatures above 75F. I'm much too lazy to buy organic foods and free-range meats and then cook them. I live in restaurants and out of my freezer. And I'm on antidepressants... so here I am with fifty-five extra pounds that I'd really rather not have.

I don't diet, I breathe and lose weight. In case you are thinking that this is good, wait till you end up looking like a stick insect. It's definitely not fun.
Peanut butter. And pizza.
Oh, yeah, alcoholic beverages, too.

Candy and other snack food
But I've gotten around it by not allowing myself to buy it. I've lost 30 lbs since right before Halloween by not buying junk food.
I used to buy bags of candy and eat it all in one sitting and then do it again a couple days later. I was probably consuming an extra 10000-15000 calories a week than needed.
