There's no reason to cut carbs. You need them. They are an important energy source for your body.
All you need to do is make sure you are eating at a slight deficit and providing the remainder of your deficit with exercise.
I weighed roughly what you did when I started. 6'0", 249 lbs. I am down to 229 lbs. I haven't cut a carb - ever. It's just not necessary. Additionally, studies show that low-carb diets affect mental abilities; you're not as sharp without carbs. My job is sitting at a desk thinking all day. I need the brain power that carbs provide.
You just need to be consistent, every day, week to week. The fact that you "gain it all back" tells me you have issues with consistency.
Give it time; none of this happens overnight. Be consistent. Be truthful with your numbers. You'll see results.0 -

Studies show low carb diets affect mental ability ? Really, I think you will find on a low carb diet the brain works at an optimal level!
Dietary carbs are an optimal macro nutrient and should be included in all health diets, but one thing they are not (unlike fat and protein) is essential!
100g of carbs (made up mostly from veg) would've optimal for health! And a diet high in fat andow in carbs naturally suppresses appetite!0 -
If you reduce carbs, remember to add oils and fats.
If you are having issues staying on plan, make some changes to your environment -- get rid of unhelpful food stuffs in the kitchen, add kitchen food to keep around, hang out with people who share your goals, get some gadgets/ appliances.0 -

I am suppose to have about 300-350 carbs a day.. I take in under 200. Therefore I increased my fats and protein intake. Working wonders too!0

Excuse me while I laugh at this.
OP if you want to try cutting carbs, go for it. Play around with numbers until you find something that works for you. We are not cookie-cutter replicas; what works for me might not work for you. People have a lot of success living low carb lifestyles and people have a lot of success not cutting carbs. You'll find what your body responds to if you just keep trying.0 -
Carbs are important, but what are your carbs? Choose oatmeal, sweet potatoes, low GI carbs, stay away from white bread, eat whole grains. Stay away from French fries, have a baked potato instead, with no added fats.
I have found very low carb diets hard to stay on, and difficult to maintain for a lasting change.0 -
Yeah don't over do it though... try 150g carbs
get it mostly from like oats, veggies, fruit (if you want), and brown rice.0 -

How so?
Thinking a little less acutely, carbs = energy. More neergy = better workouts. Better workouts can = better health.
Also, while fats may be satiating, so are a lot of carb sources. There are studies that indicate that high fat/low carb diets are not actually more satiating than moderate fat/moderate carb diets. It is very individual.0 -

I had similar stats to you when I started out. I was 5'10, 260 pounds and am currently about 215. I think going low carb would be great for you! That's what I did to lose the weight and it has been sustainable for me because I carb up for a day and a half every week. I did a lot of research on different nutrition plans before I decided to do this, but I'm not going to go through the science of it all.
Here's what I did in case you'd like to try.
1) Figured out how much to eat by finding out my lean body mass and multiplying that number by 15. It was roughly 2500 cals for me, might be different for you depending on your body fat percentage.
2) Started eating a high fat, low carbohydrate diet during the week with a day and a half of high carbs, and low fats. My protein intake stays the same every day(1g for every pound of lean body mass). Low carb days I keep carb intake less than 30g, but this number can be higher for you. I started out eating less than 70g every day, but have gradually lowered it when I get stuck.
To put it simply, I went Monday-Thursday low carb, and started my carb ups Friday evening, and ended it saturday night.
3) Lift weights and do cardio.
I'm not an expert, but this plan helped me lose fat, not just weight, and I feel great!
Good luck!0 -

Yes but a lot of these studies are carried out on people who are carb reliant and have them withheld for a short period of time.
I don't operate that well in the heat, but if I allowed my body to acclimatise to the heat I will become better adapted. But if you were to test my reaction to heat within the fist few days the results wouldn't be good, give it a couple of weeks and the results would be dramatically different!0 -

It kind of sounds more like they might not have been good studies or were taken apart when you say that.0 -
I would say try 100g of carbs for now and see how you feel, UNLESS you want to go ketogenic, which would require them to be lower. I eat keto and I consume less than 30g net carbs a day. I'm not dead, nor drained of energy, nor any of the other negative things those who look down upon low carb eating have said in this topic.0

To get back to the OPs question ....
Why don't you give it a try for a few weeks, see how you feel, and make your own decision. You won't cause any irreparable damage in 14-21 days.0 -

I don't see anyone looking down on low carb eating. I think the issue was in regards to someone claiming it was optimal.0 -
