I'm still on target for weight, but I seem to cheat more and more often. I
worry that carbs/sugar will shorten my life.

Cheats tend to trigger a negative feedback loop. It gets a little
harder to get back on each time.

Low carbing is easy to stay on but it's also easy to fall off. And each
time getting back on can be hard or easy.

Other than keeping the house clear of carby foods if anyone ever solves
the problem of temptation you'll be rich beyond the dreams of Gates and
Buffet.

So the support I have to offer is as the cheering section -

Rah rah, still at target weight. Huge accomplishment. Picture pom poms
waving if you like.
