Overly supportive husband? How can I avoid the sabotage?

I reached my target weight of 150 lbs last September. Since then my "supportive" husband sometimes asks me: Are you still trying to lose weight? Do you still log your food? Don't you want to go down to 140 lbs? Why don't you want to try? I'm not criticizing. What you've done is great, but wouldn't you like to try more?

I feel this steals all the joy of my achievement, and make me feel like I didn't do well enough. I've told him outright that his comments are counterproductive, but he can't see it.

My only solution now is to reach out to you and see if any of you have some ideas for me. Is he right? Or how can I stop this feeling of sabotage?
