It is time to look into a maintance phase of life. People handle this differently, just like they do the whole low carbing thing. Personally I now take the attitude that if its green (as in veggies) I don't worry about it. Just eat what I want. For the most part I think I am still keeping my carbs between 20 to 30 a day. What I do differently now is not worry if I have the low carb treats that stall people like ice cream. Also I keep eating the same as always and allow myself to endulge about twice a month. Be never in my own home . This seem to be working well for me. I know that ideally you should be tracking carbs and adding them back in to find your ideal level, but after a year of doing so I just don't have it in me right now to do so.

I track my progress more by clothing and measurments now instead of a scale, where as I am exercising a good amount now, and don't need to see the scale creep up.
