Hi all! I know some of you have had trouble with doing a low carb diet and then when you start eating normally again, you gain it all back. In trying to avoid that, I have been averaging around 100 carbs per day and 25g of fiber, so around 75 net carbs. Will I potentially see those same problems one day or is 75 carbs per day a good amount? For those wondering, I watch carbs carefully because my body responds really well to that, but I've been eating SOME because I know they have their benefits just like everything else :)

    Depends on how many carbs you want to eat at maintenance I would think. You will probably gain weight if you go all out on carbs, especially "junk.". Probably not if you up your carbs a little and keep calories in check. Except for the couple of pounds of water that you'll gain when you start storing carbs at maintenance. I think 100 carbs is a good number if you don't want/need to go lower. JMHO.
