The rule of thumb that helped me lose 120 pounds is this: long term (due to being not fat) happiness is greater than than short term, ephemeral (due to eating lots of pizza) happiness.
To put this in mathematical terms, I consciously try not to use hyperbolic discounting when thinking about the effects of my actions.
