  <description>&lt;p&gt;We’ve got about 8 weeks until Christmas, which means losing 8 lbs or about one pound per week is totally realistic!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode, fat loss dietitians Dani and Sam share exactly what they’d focus on if they wanted to lose 8 pounds by Christmas without cutting out pumpkin Reese's and Christmas cookies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your goal is to enjoy the holidays, feel good in your body, and still make progress, this episode gives you a simple roadmap to do it (if you're already doing these and they're not working for you, I hope you'll reach out!)&lt;/p&gt;
