sarah,
I have not been a BFL'er yet but am planning on starting Monday with my daughter. I have however had a liftime of sports and that included lifting before back problems knocked me off.
Anyway, I just want to say that it sounds to me as if you are burnt out and would like to take a rest and seeing how you are satisfied with how you look, I'd say cut yourself some slack. Having said that I wouldn't throw it all away altogether. It doesn't take long for the body to revert to flab. The "you snooze you lose" in this case would be muscle tone. The body adapts to a certain way of life which includes being challenged in your workouts. Not receiving that challenge it won't build and/or lose that muscle again.
Besides if you don't like what you are doing do something different.
Just remember the mountain it takes to get back on track, kind of like you already feeling now, its gonna be even a bigger mountain the longer you do nothing.
Just cut back and see how it works then assess again.
Just my opinion thru personal experience, and I hope you fiind what works for you.
