Back on the wagon after multiple Yo-Yos, any advice?

Over the last 10 years my weight has gone through many Yo-Yos. From around 80kg to around 100kg, then I did my first period trying to lose it, did basic CICO and landed around 80kg after a year. Then I stopped paying attention to what I ate and just went with my appetite for a few years, and when I checked back in I was at 125kg. I did CICO again and after 6 months I hit 104kg. Again I decided I could stop being so religious about logging and counting and again the weight crept back on, and now, another year later I'm back at 120kg.

I decided today to get back on the wagon again, I downloaded the app again and I'm back to logging everything religiously I guess, but I am really looking for advice on motivation, and how to handle the mental and motivational challenge.

I am a big foodie, I cook a lot and I really enjoy eating good home made food. I am also a huge fan of nice cheese and wine and bread. I basically have to completely cut these things out when I'm losing weight, because I'm not capable of just having them "in moderation", and my body seems to have almost no inbuilt regulation for being full at the correct time. I am back in the wagon as of now in the sense of knowing that I'm going to have to cut these things out again for 6 or 12 months, and I'll have to go back to religiously counting calories and all, but I just want... I guess advice on how you go about handling that basically I will never be able to live and enjoy my cooking and my food without either obsessively counting calories or failing that, slowly gaining my weight back.

ID appreciate any encouragement or help or advice on what I might be doing wrong or right, or even just some feedback from others who have been going through the same thing. It seems like my weight loss journeys always end up with me putting back the weight I lost... And I have no idea how to break that cycle without giving up basically ever taking pleasure out of good food again.

For info i am M32, 6ft4.
