Lose 10 lbs by Halloween & Get ready for holidays!

I know, I know...it's only 7.5 more pounds, but here's where it gets hard. I usually stay around 123, but every once in a while I can't think of anything besides eating. I'll eat what I want (not binge) for several days in a row until I get to about 127 or 128, then I'll cut way back and get back to 123, but I need to be 115. If I can control it back to 123, why can't I just keep going to 115? I've done very well for the past few days and this challenge has kept a goal of Halloween in view. That's good. Just do it until Halloween. It's going to start getting harder to do because I've been very disciplined, probably too disciplined for the past few days, so I'm going to make sure I get ALL the calories I need every day so that I don't get really hungry and go off the diet. I will definitely exercise tonight.

it might be that your body is just happier at 123. why do you have to be 115? If you feel good, like how you look and are healthy then don't let only a few more pound get to you. You might be exactly where you should be.

congrats!!!

You may be depriving yourself too much so that you "have" to cheat. Allow yourself treats in moderation and count them as calories because they are! If you balance it out and make sure you get enough of everything your body needs, you might be less tempted to pig out. Or you can set goals, like "if I eat really well for 3 days, I can have a pig out day or meal on the 4th day." One pig out day won't set you back as much as 3 or 4, just keep it sane
