How do you deal with getting the weight issues out of your head?

I am 3 1/2 years post. I would have thought by now the worrying would be gone. I started out at 285. I am 5'7" and 150 pounds (give or take 2). I consciously stay at that weight, it is no piece of cake to do so. How do other long term post-ops deal with the obsession, anxiety, or worry about food, weight, and regain? Is therapy the answer? A maintenence dose of Meridia to get food off the brain? Or is it antianxiety/depression medications? I am ready for a break from worrying about food. My weight has been a major issue for most of my 31 years, I can't seem to shake the "issues" surrounding it even thought I am now "thin". Thanks, Chris
