7 lbs to go

I'm down to ~192, which is 7 lbs from my goal of 185. I got to 192 2 years ago, and stopped. I'm worried that I'm not staying on track as well as I should at this point. On Friday, I went to a baseball game, and without even thinking about it, I ate some hand-tossed caramel popcorn, a giant, extremely salted pretzel, and about a half a bag of salted peanuts. Saturday was OK, and then Sunday I did a ton of heavy lifting and hard work getting my new house ready to move in, so I decided "screw it, I'm eating whatever for dinner," and had a chicken taco salad at this chain Mexican food restaurant.
I'm so close to my goal, but I kinda feel like my motivation is slipping. To add insult to injury, I'm going to Reno next week for 4 days with friends, and I'm certainly not going to be running back to the hotel room to eat a chicken breast and salad every meal time, I'm going to be eating out and most likely drinking a fair amount while I'm there.
What have you all done to make sure you stay on track on vacation? Or can I just accept that I'll be completely off the wagon while I'm on vacation and not worry about it too much, knowing that I'll be back on track when I come back? I'm finally fitting comfortably into all of my "skinny clothes," and I don't want to have to go back to my fat clothes again!
