First physical in 5 years yesterday...all my numbers looked good, and it was the lowest weight I have ever recorded at my "annual" physical...

First time at less than 200 pounds in 6 years! (and then I was only under 200 pounds for about 6 months). Now starts the part I have never done before...how do I stay here? Weighing in daily, tracking food consumption, and running certainly feel like the things I need to do...great day!
