It&#8217;s got to be one of the silliest holidays of the year with as much opportunity for indulgence as any other, but also plenty of opportunity for healthifying the heck out of it!<\/p>\n<p>At the very least we knew we had 31 reasons to love this spooky holiday, because, you know, it falls on October 31. First on our list is a Halloween full moon. The official full moon for October was last night, but there is sure to still be plenty of eery glow to light your trick or treat path. Second is all the walking the entire family gets by trekking from house to house.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"pumpkin workout\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/10\/31-reasons-we-love-everything-about-halloween\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81269\" title=\"pumpkin lunge\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/pumpkin-lunge.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/pumpkin-lunge.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/pumpkin-lunge-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWhy else do we like Halloween?
