It happened to me, and it wasn't until I finally realised, and came to terms with the fact, that I can never go back to the way I used to eat if I want to remain slim, that maintenance starting working for me.

And once you got it....it all got so much easier, didn't it?
For me, it was kind of like a light went off in my head as I was losing my weight. It dawned on me that I'd have to keep eating this way or I'd gain it all back.... one more time. OMG! What a thought.
I think that was when I started to play around with adding back the good carbs and learning which ones worked for me or not. I think that eliminating wheat from my plan was big for my body.
I actually went there and left a post for them.
