    Hi,

    What are your "carbs" set to. Mine are to 178 grams or something like that. However, when I began this journey (five years ago), the dietician I saw said to keep my total "carb" intake to 15 or fewer per day. In her world, 1 "carb" = 15 grams of carbohydrate.

    According to MFP, if I was eating 225 grams, I'd be overeating my carbs. However, I lost (and have maintained for the most part) 60+ pounds for almost five years.

    I don't stress too much about going over any individual dietary component.....and maybe I should. I just try to keep within my calorie range on most days.
