Been MIA for awhile but wanted to jump in to say that I totally feel like I eat way more than I probably do! Everyone around me comments that I dont eat and I'm over here thinking that I'm overdoing it all the time. scale and nutritionist say otherwise though.

I look in the mirror and dont recognize who I am now-a-days. I know I've lost weight but most times I still feel fat. The body image/body dysmorphia is real.

This person is just referring to foods that you can eat a lot of because they do not cause any discomfort. The sleeve is a restriction tool that (for awhile at least) prevents us from overeating because we start to feel uncomfortable if we have eaten too much. If a food is a "slider" it "slides" right through our sleeve and we feel no restriction. "Triggers" are just foods that you cannot seem to help yourself around.

Yes, sliders can stall your weight loss. Weight loss is all about calories in versus calories out, so if you are eating more calories than you are burning, you're not going to lose weight. Obviously if a food is a slider, you're eating more of it and that results in more calories taken in.
If you cannot control yourself around a certain food(a "trigger") it means you have an unhealthy relationship with that food item so in short, yes it's bad for you.

I took 2 weeks off. I found it to be the perfect amount of time. I was doing fine physically after one week but took the other week to adjust to all the changes.

Lol. Those of us with longer names to spell are getting the shitty end of the stick in the 'spell your name' workout.

I refused to eat it until after surgery... So things change!

Lol

Legit reason

Make a vision board! Put some people up there who have a similar body to the one you aspire to have.

15 Months Post, lots of the same patterns. Routine foods occasionally eating out planned splurges.
Calories most days not above 1200 except during luteal phase when I need more.
Exercise is walking most of the time but recently started jumping rope again as a part of a challenge.
Created a January challenge and gave up Protein Cookies. I lost a few more lbs. Newest weight is 151.
Change in weather means im sick, but running a FEBRUARY challenge.
Still a good choice

Yeah, I've been at the same exact weight for about 2 weeks now. Like hasnt moved up or down at all. I'm starting to think my scale is broken. [emoji14]
Ahaha. Thank you for the compliment! I've always been fairly active and once some weight dropped off it was just that much easier for me to be much more active. Working on those Instagram abs!
Just gotta stick through the stall though! Kind of nice to know I am not the only one. I was worried I was stalling because I'm not bringing in enough calories to sustain my activity level but maybe its just the natural progression of things.

Goals for February are to hopefully hit under 170 by the end of the month. Plan is to only take 4 rest days out of the 28 day month.

Been doing solid with my exercise goals and with the core challenge so far. Anyone else doing this core challenge with me?
Feeling a little bleh about myself because I've been stalled at 175 for a week which is my first stall. Attached pic is what my core currently looks like. Hoping to flatten out more/possibly fine some definition by the end of the month.
