I totally agree about the journey vs destination thing - that's true of all of life - but "don't get comfortable" bothers me a bit.

I know what it means - same as it's not a destination and change is going to keep happening - and yet the more comfortable I am, the better I do.

so, in the end, get comfortable with change is what I'm thinking.

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.

 I agree. I like it, but I think I'd change "comfortable" to "complacent". I want to get to the point
where I'm comfortable with my new life and it's just my life.
