No to pasta?
No to dessert?

Looking for motivation... I know 10Lbs is not that much... But it has been soooo HARDDDD to lose them.. :-(

Late night snacking and dessert is what is stopping me from loosing that last little bit too. I hope we both find the answer soon.

there is nothing wrong with any of those things if they fit into your daily calories/macros.

you need a small deficit (1/2lb per week) and a decent strength training routine to get rid of the last few lbs

I too have 10lb to lose and im finding it soo hard hard also. I think a lot of us are in the same boat.
I try not eat after 7pm i know sometimes thats not possible but every now and then shouldnt hurt too much.
Im also a carb junky so love pasta, potatoes, bread etc which i know is so bad but i crave them, they are my weakness.
so i try and limit it so if i have pasta for lunch i try and have something like broth for tea, or salmon and veg, or a salad.

as for deserts, id say dont deny yourself anything as thats when your more likely to cave completely and binge. i find it handy keeping a box of thorntons in the house at all times then after a meal if i need something sweet, i will allow myself 1 thorntons chocolate. its usually enough to satisfy my sweet tooth.

hope this helps.

Stuck in the same boat, think strength training is the only way. So close and yet so far!
