So much of what we do is wrapped up in food - how do you change your approach/thinkin

I'm having a hard time grasping how you can suddenly "stop" eating. (I know you don't actually stop, but it sure seems that way!) When our whole lives have been wrapped up in food for enjoyment, solace, entertainment - to suddenly give that up and be OK about it: how does that mental switch happen? To never have birthday cake or ice cream again or Reeses peanut butter eggs! Go out to eat? Dinner parties? So much of what we do is wrapped up in food - how do you change your approach/thinking? How do you make food a total non-issue in your day-to-day living? I don't eat because I'm hungry, so the "feeling full" thing isn't necessarily going to help..... All input appreciated!!
