I have been successful at losing 20 pounds by not cheating and being very diligent. Low carb, high protein and fat and absolutely no alcohol.

I am going to two important celebrations tonight and although I do plan to avoid junk foods I also plan on having a couple glasses of wine

    And bloody well enjoy them! Log them and feel better about how little they impact in the grand scheme of your journey ☺

    Enjoy! :]
    You're only human - you're more than entitled to the things you love, just keep them logged so you are aware of what you're consuming.

    Go, have fun, log and move on. This is about a living life, not deprivation.

    Well, if you're "preparing," you're not "cheating." You're Being responsible. Have a good time!

    I started my journey July 24th. It's hard but it is worth it!

    It feels like cheating! I did plan for it but still scale says up 3lbs. I know it is just water but why does that have to happen?!
