1200 calorie, low carb (under 30 grams) per day!

I have lost 6.5 lbs since 5/3/2013 and some days my counts on calories and carbs are a tad higher. I had hit a plateau and am glad something is working. Since I started tracking calories instead of just tracking carbs, I realize how high my calories must have been! I would not have been shocked to learn that they were close to 3000 per day! I do around 30-40 grams of carbs daily and now have finally broken the 150 mark! Love MFP!

    Thanks! It seems easy for me since I track on MFP. I now see that I was experiencing carb creep. By this, I mean, that my guesstimations were way off. I was eating enough carbs to maintain but not few enough to lose.
