how to permanently break eating habits?

Context: over many years of trying to lose weight, I discovered that my habits are the reason why I keep failing. I lost around 12 kgs (in like a year?) and gained it all back (went back to my highest weight and surpassed that). Every time I lose weight I always gain it back and come back to weight X. I am genuinely so tired because I feel like i have control but then I dont.

(weight loss from overweight to normal weight, weight x is the borderline between both and has affected my health negatively in many aspects (physically and mentally))

My problematic habits appear when i pour myself food and eat it. I feel like when it comes to meals I always turn on autopilot mode and pour myself the amount of food I always pour (pre weight loss) and eat it. And i always discover that i ate too much after i had wiped out my plate and feel my stomach bulging hard and my breathing becoming difficult. I tried weighing my food, using smaller plates, putting down my spoon, drinking while eating and all that and I genuinely feel like i cannot reach a solution. Before anyone tells me to be "mindful and conscious" when i eat, i tried that and i always feel its so weird and i feel like i am not satisfied nor satiated even if i eat what i wanna eat in the quantity i want. It feels so out of the place.

I genuinely do not know how to break this habitual eating. I feel like i got too used to my old schedule to the point that everything feels like muscle memory (going to the kitchen and opening the fridge just to realize i literally did not want to eat).

i know this sounds so silly but its been too long and too hard and i dont think im the only one who has this problem. i need a solution that works because everything i tried only worked temporarily
