I've maintained my 40 lb. weight loss since August, but I admit I gained a few this week, but I think the trade-off was worth it. I would feel so deprived if I didn't get to have some traditional favorites (especially since I'm doing all the baking), and my son's been here visiting, so we've gone out quite a bit. At least I know HOW to go about losing it again...but I'm not counting points again till my kid leaves (tomorrow)!
