    Around 135 to 150 total (diabetics can't count carbs as net. If I did it would be around 100)

    I try to stick to 100g and under a day, but if I get up to125g I'm not upset. It's just on the high end for me.

    In the previous full seven day period, I averaged about 337 grams per day. (I eat over 3K cals a day though.)

    For a guy like me (6.0"; 193#; 43, 3-5 days of weekly exercise) According to this calculator, my carb consumption should be around 402 grams.

    Make of that of which you will.

    I'm glad you asked. I worry more about getting a variety of healthyish food at a calorie deficit than macros per se. But your question made me go back and look. Looks like I am carb cycling naturally. I tend to run in the 70s for a couple days, then the 90s a couple days, then the 120s a couple then back down. Every month or so I have a 'carb frenzy" but I think they probably coincide with the one night a month I let myself go have a couple beers at the neighbor's house.

    100g or less, but on days I am more active I consumer more, but I try and keep it lower if I don't work out much that day.

    Same. my goal is 25% of my calories so about 105g. I'm not strict about it though so if a have a couple days closer to 150, it is what it is and don't worry about. It all evens out in the end.

    Depends on my then current goals. On average, when cutting, its between 160 and 220g (depending on how deep my cut is) and when maintaining its about 280 - 300g.
