    it al depends on what you define as "low carbs" everyone has different macro's
    I do 40% protein, 30% carbs, $30 fat
    so I try to eat around 100g of carbs a day, possibly less depending on my activity level
    anyways, add me :)

    Love Low Carbing! Cravings and appetite are so under control. I have been doing it on and off for years and feel so much better when on. One recommendation for some great recipes using real food is Stella Style. Guy's name is George Stella, he has a web sight and several cookbooks. Love his recipes! Welcome to all who are living the low-carb life style.

    I am on Paleo. I did Atkins a few years back and lost 100 pounds. I stupidly thought of it as a diet so I started eating my old way again, and yep I gained it all back them some. I now know it is a lifestyle. I am doing 20 carbs a day to lose weight. I will start writing in my diary. So add me!

    Relatively low-carb here. I essentially cut out all refined carbs, sugars, etc. That being said, just curious--how many carbs do people stay under a day? I don't do Atkins, but I've greatly limited the amount of carbs I eat daily.

    Please add me as well! I'd love to get recipe updates, etc!

    One of my personal trainers encouraged me to go low carb to jump start the scale with the exercise routine that I am working on.
    While focused on carbs, my calorie intake has been pretty low. This is supposed to be a five day push.

    Anyone have any suggestions to keep the carb total for the day under 80 and still consume closer to 1200 calories?
    BTW - I don't eat meat.

    Thanks for all of your tips!
    Feel free to add me ~ I'm new on the site. :smile:

    Started Sunday, eat an average of 21 net carbs. My regular diet is similar to Mediterranean, I'm on Keto right now. Once I maintain I'll be on 150g carbs daily.
