To stop logging the food that I eat??

I have become obsessed. Everything I eat or drink gets logged into my fitness pal so I can ensure I don't go overboard on calories.

I've been doing this for months and it's so addictive and controlling that I feel exhausted by it.

I'm not overweight either.

I'm thinking if I just eat what I want and keep an eye on the scales life will be so much more simple.

AIBU or am I on the road to weight problems?

Yes! I've used MFP in the past and no know exactly what you mean about how addictive it becomes. I lost weight recently using calorie counting (ish) but not logging. I just had a rough idea of how many calls I was eating and tried to say under a certain amount. Felt much less obssesswd by it and managed to lose a stone. Happy with my weight now but still keeping half an eye on what I eat and weighing daily.
