I am grateful to have been sleeved and to have remained at goal for 8 months.

However, as of late I've noticed old habits coming back. I'm doing much more snacking primarily and carb-related foods like Cereal, granola bars, and 70-calorie ice cream bars.

Somehow, my weight has remained unchanged and possibly due to my rigorous 6-days/week workout regimen.

I'm still logging food and calories are up to about 2200/2300 a day. I'm concerned that my intake is increasing and appetite increasing as well.

I want to control this before the gaining starts, as I'm noticing gradual increases in snacking and it's scaring me.

Carbohydrates are a hard thing for me as well. It is way to tempting to have wheat thins in my home. I always regret it when I use them as a small meal instead of my Protein and vegetable meal. The carbohydrates kick in my hunger and my energy drops. I'm now listening to my body. I know I will feel crappy if I don't eat healthy. I had to tell wheat thins we cannot be friends.

Kudos to you on not gaining and your fitness level!

Keep logging food and exercise and keep an eye on your weight. I had kind of the same experience, (I'm about 1.5 yrs out too) but I had stopped logging and let larger Snacks and too frequent alcohol creep in. Put on like 5 pounds outside my goal range then had to go back to the habits that work to take it off again, (which I have), but only just. Now working on creating a little wiggle room. If you're not gaining, maybe you need the calories. If you really want to stop it, change up your snacks to whole foods only for a week or 2. Sometimes I just need to break a habit and going "clean" can help.
