Been obsessing over cheat meal for months now.

29M here. Little background on me I’ve been pretty unhealthy most of my life. Was a kid that ate nothing but pizza and pancakes everyday. Had no real nutrients or diet plan for 99% of my life. Just sort of ate what I felt like eating and it was all just carbs and junk food. About a year ago I decided to go on my weight loss journey. Was 300+ pounds at one point and now I am down to 195. At first I just focused on an extreme calorific deficit and running like a mad man. Then about 50/60 pounds later I decided I wanted to lift and take my diet very seriously to optimize. I go to the gym to lift 5/6 times a week, quit drinking and smoking weed, and eat a very clean and nutrient filled diet. And these meals I eat I actually quite enjoy every day. (Eggs chicken/rice, almonds, ground beef, bananas) in between my losing weight I decided to bulk up for about 3 months and now since January I’ve been cutting on a 2lbs per week loss rate. My goal was to reach 12-13% body fat. I’m nearly there. 10 pounds away. But I’ve had an obsession now for a couple of months of a cheat meal. Cheesesteaks, pizza candy. And recently it’s all I can think about. Today was really hard but I got through it. Just think I’m on the verge of breaking and ruining my progress. Like I said minus like 3-4 days I’ve stuck to my diet and weight lifting regiment/cardio everyday. I don’t mind not drinking/smoking, I don’t mind the lifting, I don’t mind the cardio. I’ve just been constantly thinking about my cheat day/meal and I don’t know what to do. I know I’ll regret it immediately but I also don’t know how much longer I can keep this up. Worried that I’ll start to eat bad and never go back. Maybe I’m not cut out for this. Has anybody else experienced this? What helped you? Any other advice?
