I have managed to maintain my weight the last couple weeks without worrying about what I am eating and how many times I make it to the gym. It is so refreshing. I would much rather be content and maintain, than be stressed and try to lose while maintaining!
You know, there is a lot of pressure out there to be thin, and not as much pressure to just be healthy, no matter the size. Not everyone is going to be healthy at a size 2 or 4. My size 12 can still run a couple miles on the treadmill, and kick but with 12 lb weights. The absence of any weight related health problems leads me to believe that my stress came from a place of vanity, which stems from the ego.
So this is my new journey. To be happy, and content, and healthy.

Live in the Moment
The stress became too much, so I decided to chill out for a bit. I am still going to the gym 2-3 times per week and I am still eating relatively well. I just decided to stop worrying about it all the time. I was so stressed out that I could barely enjoy life. Now I live one day at a time. Every morning I wake up and it is a new day, new adventure. I didn't lose weight last week, but I was thankful I maintained. I'm enjoying my state of Zen.
