Hi, I'm in the UK where we speak a different version of the same language, have different measurements and food labelling that doesn't include fiber in the carbohydrates.
I'm 51 and a guy, and that isn't me in the picture. He was a volunteer in the Minnesota starvation experiment who was fed 1585 calories a day with 69.4% from carbs, poor man.
I am aiming to get to 168 lbs by the end of June. Currently about 174 down from 200 at New Year. 5'-10".
I'm an Atkins follower by and large and eat less than 30g of carbohydrate per day (that's "net carbs in American)0 -

Welcome Yarwell! That poor man in the picture - I honestly thought he was maybe a holocaust camp survivor, he looks so darn painfully thin....
Best of luck in your LC journey!0 -
Welcome, Yarwell. I am so glad that is not you in that picture! I'm working on lowering my carbs so i'm not maintaining, but losing (slowly). Currently I'm at around 50-75 net carbs/day. I may need to change it to 30-50, but want to see if this works first.
Good luck on your journey!0 -
Yarwell, WELCOME to the group.
I am like Res, I thought the pic was of a holocuast survivor too.
I think everyone here is watching carbs in one fashion or another.
Yarwell, I posted another thread in the discussion area and working toward getting all of us posting there sooo come on down and join us.0 -
