How far will you go to lose weight?

I'm not partying this haloween weekend because I know that the alcohol will ruin my running schedule for the entire week - not to mention the temptation to eat junk food. I'm also thinking about not gorging myself on Thanksgiving. It seems so hard but for impulsive people like me, the first bite/drink/cigarette etc always leads me to spiral out of control.

Don't let it. Have your weekend drink or a big thanksgiving pigout and get right back on track the next day.0

Nothing tastes as good as thin feels!0

Yep, I have to avoid that first bite, too. I say 'no' a lot. Not too sure what I will do with the holidays yet and am open to suggestions.0

this. Your life can't come to a hault because of this!0 -
I let myself drink on Friday. I deserve it after working all week. I used to drink 3 or 4 times a week, trust me you will feel better not drinking so much and it's so much sweeter when you wait for it all week. You enjoy it so much more. Not to mention your liver will thank you!0

This is the trick! Having "just one bite" is virtually impossible (at least for me). Much easier to just say no altogether!0 -

As someone who's been hospitalized with a feeding tube for being 'thin' (and I used the above quote all time at that point), I disagree with this. A LOT of things taste better than thin feels.......
Being thin doesn't always feel good, being HEALTHY does
Being healthy is being mindful, not depriving yourself ALL the time.0 -
I drink. I just budget it in and make sure I hit my exercise and protein goals before I have my wine. Today for example, I had wine. Tomorrow I add more to my work out. I am losing, too. Do not think you have to deprive yourself. Just make sure you budget for it!0

This is a lifestyle change for me, not some diet. Teaching mind self control with the things you enjoy eating/drinking.0 -
I changed it to, nothing tastes as good as healthy feels. It's posted on my fridge, my kids have told me it helps them with choices.Nothing tastes as good as thin feels!

For some people who have been on an eating plan for a long time, a Thanksgiving pigout could lead to many hours in the bathroom the next day. I say eat what you want but don't make yourself sick!0

I don't want to be thin either... ever! Give me my health and let me tuck in my shirts without my gut doing all the talking and I'm okay with that. Give me the strength to hold my children until they are well into adulthood and lead an active lifestyle into old age.0 -
If you have an addictive nature around sugar/flour/alcohol/drugs, then yes abstinence is really the way to control your intake. Like a lot of people have said, I will up my exercise for certain treats. Like this moring for example, I wanted a doughnut (first one in years but not my first treat in years) so I worked out A LOT to make up for it. I ate 300 calories of doughnut and burned about 800. Eating without deprivation of "the bad stuff" is tricky. It's a test of discipline, patience, and requires practice.
Best of luck to you!0 -

This quote comes from Kate Moss in her coked out anorexia days, oh wait, she's still like that, but either way yeah.......0 -

Is this like what would you do for a klondike bar? I like to travel, and hopefully my passport won't expire before I get to my destination.0
