    Wow. Congrats. I have logged in every day for 30 days on a row, and celebrated with a meal out on Sunday. I think it's important to give yourself a treat, once in a while. So the answer to your question- give yourself a break. After a year on MFP, I think you would have a pretty good understanding of what foods you need to eat. And well done!

    You need to address why you feel the desire to take a "break," since those elements will probably factor into whether or not you will be able to sustain your weight loss.

    Do you desire to eat more food in general, or do you miss specific types, etc.?

    You'll always have to limit yourself if you want to be healthy though... that's part of being healthy unfortunately. Even if you lose all the weight, you'll still won't be able to eat as much as you used to.

    Order your takeaway. Enjoy it. Then go back in the wagon the next day. It doesn't have to be all or nothing. As long as you're still careful of not totally overeating, you can still indulge once in a while.
