    My problem with low carb is that you end up cutting out entire food groups. Not just bread, but fruit and vegetables that aren't low carb approved, such as apples and bananas.

    Most low carbers don't cut out that food group, but they may restrict it somewhat. They will eat apples and bananas. I had an orange, celery and snap peas yesterday. Perhaps not as much as some but I am on the very low carb end of the spectrum of about 20 g of carbs per day and low carb is still another 100+ g more than that.

    I'm not low carb, per se, but many of my friends are. Most eat quite a few vegetables, many of them eat more than the average MFP user, I'd bet.

    Low carb is generally below 100/day.
