Change permissions so administrator cannot delete/modify executable?

I have a program called Cold Turkey, which I have found to be the best of the bunch of "self-control" access programs after trying many out. I am relatively tech-savvy, however, and very motivated (read: addict) to bypass the program, and have found that I can delete, move, use safe mode, or modify settings in the task manager to get around the program and get onto the net. I have tried various "hider" and "lock" programs, too, giving a password to a friend; either they don't have the features I need (ability to run/modify program settings in normal use) or mess up my computer horribly, resetting permissions or blocking the ability to remove the locking program/root program without going into the registry.

So I've looked into modifying permissions, and this seems to be the best, most surefire way to fix the problem. All are already given freely to (and owned by?) the Administrator (me). I'd like to transfer permissions so that administrators and users are not allowed to delete, modify, move, terminate, etc. the files, even in safe mode, but still allow the user to run the program and modify it through the interface itself. I guess that means giving permissions to the Application Package (or TrustedInstaller?).

So I tinkered a bit with this, but found that, as an administrator, I could transfer these permissions, but I could not remove the administrator as the owner of the file, thereby defeating the whole purpose. Is there something I'm missing? Is there some way to defeat this, maybe by using a program like PermissionsEx? I'm happy to do a backup and try doing this through the registry or the Explorer interface, but a little wary of doing it with the command line interface (but would try it!).

Also, this program modifies the host files, and uses (I believe) the .NET framework and a program called winpcap (which is installed in this directory as well as another). Would these applications interfere with my ability to run the program if I set the system to control the program?

Sorry to be long-winded; the essence of this is, I guess, 1) a question of how to transfer owner administrative rights that are already built-in to the system or another owner that I don't control and 2) the easiest way to accomplish this (a freeware tool would be ideal). If anyone has other ideas on how to block administrative control (adding a different administrator or modifying the UAC, but still being able to install/run other programs that require administrative rights), or a link to a tutorial, that would be wonderful. Hopefully I won't here "you need more discipline," or something, because I know that already.

For reference: my operating system is Windows 10 x64 Home. I'm also attaching a shot of the permissions currently in force in the program.

Thank you very, very much. Been working on this for days on end to no avail.
