Only a small percentage of people keep weight off long term, Ive seen figures around 20% so whatever works for you is the right answer but its unlikely to be the same solution for the rest of your life. Its a higher relapse rate than alcoholics.
Speaking from experience, if you only buy healthy food it massively reduces the attack vector of unhealthy food, and by unhealthy I mean calorie dense food that leads to relapse due to its high processed sugar content.
If I am eating clean then everybody else in the house is eating clean, its no different from an alcoholic needing no alcohol on the house. Obviously food exists outside the house as well, but its about reducing your exposure to it as much as possible, which includes avoiding majority of restaurants.
Unless you have a problem with over consumption of food its very hard for people to directly equate it to an addiction. When people who can self regulate food intake, who have never had to diet in their life, try to give diet advice its like a fish giving running advice.
