I don't know. One of the diet plans I did had a therapy component to it. But what I discovered is that basically there are strictures in my life that aren't going to change. Full time work and commute there. These make dieting and or fun difficult to have. So having a candy is something that can quickly give me joy and is widely available while other things are not.
Also difficult is that I don't eat that much. I have an efficient metabolism and thus while other people can eat a lot- one or two treats in a week can stall me. Even if I am otherwise eating well.
