First of all, let me second Megan, you look great in your picture! I think before your avatar was always a chick... I too will always have the baby cheeks and envy yours!
I completely agree, I keep waiting for the day that it's no longer worth it to watch what I eat and I slip back into old habits. The only thing that keeps me sane is that I'm still trying to lose these last 10 pounds. I probably don't need to, but I want to and keeping that in mind has kept me from sliding back into my former life.
I'm scared to death. This is the third time I've lost this weight, and I don't want to do it again. It's a wonderful journey, but I'm done with it.
I hope that if I keep that in mind and keep getting on the scale EVERY day and owning whatever happens, good or bad, that I'll be successful in maintenence.
For me at least, I think I have to keep myself scared and never get complacent. Like you said, I'm still a fat girl. Anywho, I'm rambling, so I'll go, just wanted to let you know that I agree and am in the same place!
