Why food pleasure source meditate empty delight hard?

Food to me is not only a fuel, but my major source of celebration, comfort and pleasure. When I meditate, I attempt to find that state of contentment and delight within my body but with no food. It's incredibly difficult. It is like using a dead battery to jump start a car, the burst of happiness is simply not possible without the jump of sugar or carbs. It is not just my diet I am trying to change; it is my entire reward pathway in my brain. Meditation is a poor effort to seek a ray of happiness in an empty room, when I am aware of a party that awaits me in the kitchen. The magnetic force is so great in the neurological.
