Is it ok to exercise less?

I recently got to my goal weight and that was through strict diet (no junk at all and lower cals) and adequate exercise (6+ hours/week). I still do around the same amount but more of it is focused on strength circuits and less on cardio. I know this means less calorie burn. To make matters worse, I am eating more now and allowing myself a treat almost every day (yesterday was apple pie and today wwill probably be muffin and chips). 

Now that I'm working to prevent weight gain, is it a safe decision to tone down on exercise...say only 4-5 hours/week? Or is it too risky? I feel like I don't have as much motivation as I did before and afraid of gaining weight. 

Did you exercise less and/or eat more once you reached your goal weight?

Suggestions welcome
