For me it was more of willpower. Also maybe cos of the morning sickness. I quit cold turkey style after I found out I was pregnant at 5 weeks - overnight I threw out all of it and I never looked back. Of course there are days where i feel overwhelmed and wanna take a stick, but I’ll just look at my baby’s ultrasounds and munch on healthy snacks such as fruits. Good luck.
