    What's wrong with eating carbs?

    I eat 250-350g daily, constituting 50-60% of my intake may I ask why I should amend that to 100g?

    That's whey protein chart 100-150 ok! ! That is average!!
    280 is above average

    Above what average?

    I think it means you get an A+. I on the other hand have my carbs at 190/day, so I obviously only get a B+ for being a gluttonous overachiever.

    OP, you will find that many people here chose different macros for different reasons. Many people eat more carbs than you are suggesting and are achieving success.

    100-150 Grams Per Day

    This is more of a “moderate” carbohydrate intake. It is very appropriate for people who are lean, active and simply trying to stay healthy and maintain their weight.

    It is very possible to lose weight at this (and any) carb intake, but it may require you to count calories and/or control portions.

    Carbs you can eat:

    All the vegetables you can imagine.Several pieces of fruit per day.Some amount (not a lot) of healthy starches like potatoes, sweet potatoes and healthier grains like rice and oats.

    Can I just ask if you noticed that this is a calorie counting website/app? I'm just wondering because of the suggestion that if you don't want to lower your carb intake that it will be necessary to count calories. Maybe I am just confused by this statement. I would love to hear your thoughts. Welcome to MFP!
