I had to quit baking gluten-free goodies, and not buy any chocolate or candies. If it is gluten-free and in the house, I will eat it. I have 70+ pounds to go, and am trying to relearn eating habits. As far as cravings go, if I am willing to walk a mile to the nearest store, then walk a mile back in 100 degree heat, then I will get it. Usually, I decide it is not worth the effort.

I have to keep all goodies and even the ingredients to make goodies out of the house too. Otherwise I can't stay out of them. 
The other thing I do is remind myself of how bad these foods make me feel and that by giving in to eating them, I will only extent my withdrawal time.
This only works when I am sane
Just remind yourself that you got through the wheat withdrawals, RIGHT ??? You can do this too.
