I too have been through this situation. up until last year, i worked for my uncles candy store, and ate tons of his candy, since it was free for me. you could try these things to stop eating candy
1) take a healthy snack from home that you enjoy, maybe somethign that tastes sweet but is really healthy. I like the 100 calorie packs, or the special k breakfast bars
2) keep all the money that you would have spent on candy in a jar at your house. look at how much you have saved before going to work, to remind your self of just hwo much you do spend on candy. Then, once you saved up enough, go out and buy yourself something that you have really wanted, and remember that you could have just eaten all that money if you would have bought candy
3) Just keep reminding yourself what the candy does to you. It could give you pimples, or make you gain weight. Without the candy your face might clear up (if you have acne) or you might even drop a pound or 2
4) ask the other employees to not eat the candy around you. If they arent eating it, you will be less tempted to eat it
I hope this have help and good luck
