food to lose weight - acid reflux, anyone can help?

I would like to know what foods to eat to lose weight. I have acid reflux.  It's hard for me to organize - and I'm very scared that I will give up again. Maybe I should go to the doctor? Dietetics? Maybe someone has the same problem?

It's more like what foods NOT to eat.  Avoid sugar and starches and you will lose weight.  I KNOW what to do and I have always been on the thin side but now I am more than 50 pounds overweight.  I know if I stopped sugar, I would lose weight.  But for some reason, cookies and coffee is the first thing I go to in the morning.  And I end the day with ice cream.  I am a sugar addict and I need to figure out how to break the cycle.  Best of luck to you.
