I'm really struggling here...maybe someone has some advice? (F, 49, 169cm, SW 81kg, CW 68, GW 64)

I started my weight loss attempt at the end of Sept. by doing light keto for about a month, then i switched to low carb, and finally to CICO with occasional 16:8 fasts. I've lost 8kg (about 18 pounds) since then and from 2016 to Sept I had lost 6kg.

I use MFP and weigh EVERYTHING. I go to the gym (cardio plus weights for 1.5 hrs) or work out at home on treadmill 6 days a week. I'm happy that I have been able to run farther every day since I have never been a real runner and I actually enjoy it.

Here's my problem: lately I can't stop eating in the evening. I'll hit my calorie and macro target and then keep going. I'm eating everything and anything, even if I am not hungry. It's just massive cravings. I'd say i'm probably getting 500 extra calories a day (I stop using MFP as soon as I know I'm going over like an ostrich with its head in the sand).

What the hell is going on? Why was I able to eat properly and with discipline for over 2 months, and now I'm losing my shit over food? Maybe this isn't a question that can be answered but I need to ask somewhere...
