Hrm. I think this probably comes under "other people's perceptions not really being relevant", but I actually hadn't noticed your body changing except in the obvious "big hole in your leg" respect.
Unsurprisingly really, I basically agree with what Helen's said - having made a choice about how much effort you're prepared to put in to having the shape you want, you should make sure you're confident that it was the right decision for your overall happiness, and then just start working on accepting the results.
I guess I'm a bit further on than you, having been stable at about 2 stone heavier than I'd ideally like for a couple of years now, and I have found it getting easier.
