I'm exhausted with dieting

Hey everyone, so this might be a bit of a vent but I'm so frustrated. I'm experiencing serious diet fatigue and I want to throw in the towel and just eat the foods I like. I started my weight loss journey in February and I haven't reached my goal at all. I keep fluctuating.

I sometimes drink too much on the weekends, and then eat too much as a result, and I think it's been my biggest deal breaker. Keto seemed to be the ONLY thing that really worked and worked fast. And I keep trying to go back to it over and over but it's so hard for me to sustain it seems. So then I quit, eat carbs, and boom sky rocket again.

It seems when I don't do keto, I don't really loose weight. But a part of me thinks that a big part of that is because when I'm keto, I drink and cheat very little. Because drinking on keto feels like hell, and there aren't many foods you can cheat with on keto.

This time last year I did dry November and counted calories and lost 6 pounds in a month. I was extremely proud of myself for being so disciplined on multiple fronts. I might just need to experiment for a month without alcohol/cheat meals on the weekend again and see if I really do need keto or if it's the other factors when following a keto diet that helped me loose the weight. I only have about 20 pounds left to loose, but man do those last pounds stick like glue.

Thanks for reading and letting me rant. This group has helped me tremendously.
