I almost always go over my carbohydrates and I don't know if it's a bad thing or not I'm not really sure what the negative effect they could have on you are?? Or does it not matter. I'm juts curious because I always go over them by a nice bit?

    If you are on a low carb diet you might have a problem other than that as long as your watching the calories you can eat as many carbs as you like.

    Depends...Are you still losing weight? Does your body process sugar without stalling? Everyone is different. Make your decision by trial and error. Listen to your doctor and your body!

    It depends. Are you trying to get into ketosis or are you just trying to cut back on some carbs? Ketosis usually requires 50g or less (but some people are lucky and can eat 100g)
