I don't know if this would be an option for you, but I had a lot of the same issues, boredom & comfort eating, and eating a lot of take out as well as just generally eating unhealthily. I wound up getting a referal to a dietician from my family Dr. who put together a proper meal plan for me. It was easy to follow and implement. The biggest change for me was portion control and cutting back on carbs. I wound up losing 30 lbs, over 3 months, and I'm on a ton of psych meds including a fairly high dose anti-psychotic. So it is possible to loose weight you just have to be really disciplined about it, and getting some exercise, even if it's just walking really helps too.
