My suggestion would be to stop eating anything that is sweetened. It isn't uncommon to replace one addiction with another. Alcoholics will often replace alcohol with sugary foods or cigarettes.
I had a similar problem to yours, even though I quit smoking more than 9 months ago. I was going crazy with artificially sweetened candy and similar junk. A friend from here on the forums coaxed me into giving up all sweeteners, whether natural and artificial, about 2 weeks ago. It was strange at first, and I was surprised to find myself 'grieving' the absence of sweets in my diet. Now, though, I hardly ever even think about them. I find that, in general, I'm less hungry every day, as well.
