    You are doing great!! Unless you have diabetes and, therefore, need a doctor to tell you how many carbs to eat, the amount you are eating is really good. Just try to eat more whole grains, fresh fruit and fresh veggies as your sources of carbs, and less white-flour/added sugar carbs, and you will do fine.

    I keep my refined carbs down because it seems to make me more hungry and have cravings. When I do I try to choose whole grain pasta, brown rice, whole grain bread, crackers, etc. I do eat bananas and fruit as well. I stick with protein to keep me full most of the time.

    I'm attempting to eat clean, to avoid processed food, there are not tons of options out there for those less healthy carbs.

    I agree with this, but again, it's up to how you personally feel. Pay attention to how hungry you are on days when you eat more carbs/days when you have less.

    There's nothing wrong with carbs .-.
    Calories in vs. calories out.
    I'm going to go eat a bowl of spaghetti for dinner, and I'm not going to give a damn about it because I have 750 calories left for the day.

    From what I have learned from making my own mistakes trying to limit or cut out carbs will only end up hurting you if you are trying to exercise on a regular basis. It is more important as a woman to not deprive your body of the fuel it needs.
