Probably 50% of the time. 40% of the time I'm just snacking on something (not junk food though), and maybe 10% of what I eat is fast/junk food.

Ya, I'm sure. I just hate how slowly the weight's dropping. I never thought it'd take 7 months to lose 8lbs when I'm burning 1,000-1,200 calories every single day on the treadmill.

I HATE how calorie dense 90% of food is.

Calorie counting is possibly the most annoying thing that I am starting to do, but it's getting better over time. Every time I am tempted, I always remember an interview with Chris Pratt on how he got in shape. He said that when he was eating like shit he felt good when he was eating but felt like shit the rest of the day. When he changed his diet, food became less enjoyable, but he felt so much better throughout the day. This isn't saying that healthy eating can't be delicious, just a thing to think about.

I do find that if I'm exceptionally busy throughout the day, I find myself less tempted to snack. Which is not to imply that I always eat when I'm bored, I'm getting much better about that, but I'm definitely less likely to munch on something if my brain or body is completely focused on something else. Hell, even just driving all day I'll be less tempted to stop and eat vs sitting at a desk computer browsing Reddit.
