Maintenance

Being 7 years out and had a significant regain, let me assure you that even a bite of carbs here and there will sabotage what you are striving for.  I am living proof of that.  This is a lifestyle change.  Yes, you will diet for the rest of your life.  Depends on what is important to you.  I can say this with 100% confidence because I am finally back on the wagon and it is hard hard hard to shed the weight now.
