I am testing an Omega 3 supplement. According to one MD (I am trying to dig up the reference, which I sent to my work email), our diet has resulted in a dirth of Omega 3, coupled with an over abundance of Omega 6. The result is a malfunction in the appetite, resulting in overeating.

I am not much for simple answers to complex biological questions, but this is a sensible assessment of the evidence he presents. I do not think that adding Omega 3 without altering other dietary culprits would help, but I do think that Omega 3 is lacking in our modern diet and adding it (preferably through healthy diet changes, but a supplement is the next best thing) can help.

No substitute for professional advice, but my two cents....D

 

Mindful eating might be helpful to some extent.  But what you eat determines hormone levels, especially insulin and that determines your feelings of hunger or satiation.  Eating  carbs will raise insulin.  Drastically cut your carb intake.  If you want some chocolate get the dark chocolate, 85% or 88% Cacao.  One serving is usually about 5 - 8 grams of sugar and usually 2.5 servings in a large bar.  So in the whole bar your only getting 13 to 20 or 25 grams of sugar.
