OCD???

I have been working very hard at achieving my weight loss goals. I have 10 more pounds to lose and believe me when I put my mind to something... watchout. But, I noticed I'm also a bit OCD, (not that it's anything new, it applies to all aspects of my life) but I didn't realize how much until I said that tonight I was going to take a break from working out. Usually work out 6 days a week, it's been 7 and I felt guilty for not wanting to tonight so I pushed myself and did it anyway. I've been going strong for 5 weeks now and lost about 11 pounds in that time but I know me and I will burn myself out. I read on another site that if you feel guilty for giving your body AT LEAST one rest day a week you are headed for trouble. I could NEVER imagine myself "in trouble" with my nutrition and fitness regemine but I also don't know how to do this in moderation and not feel guilty if I slack just a bit. Just to give you background, I know EVERYONE cheats, but in the past 5 weeks I have not cheated with even one morsel of something bad for me and that includes Thanksgiving. So what does this say about me and does anyone else experience this? Kind of worried I will take this to the extreme then quit because of complete burn out and deprivation (although truly I like what I'm eating and I don't feel deprived at all) Make any sense?
