    No more than 10 posts till we are told a calorie is a calorie and eating 250 calories in doughnuts is the same as 250 calories in sweet potatoes and black beans

    Taken longer than I thought! Lol. People think low carb is meat, eggs and cheese. What they don't realize is I more salad, cucumber, cauliflower, spinach etc in one day than most do in a week. Love low carb!

    Yep

    Had sliced seedless cucumbers, tomato, red onion salad snack.

    Cole slaw mix with Bolthouse Yogurt blue cheese dressing side dish.

    Avocado is moderate carb

    Celery is low...

    But the Sargento low fat cheese sticks are a yummy snack too!

    I'm only moderate low carb. Not sure 60-80 carbs is low?

    Been on that level of carbs for a year and a half. It isn't hard to stick to.

    But I like veggies!

    I prefer "high protein on a caloric deficit" than "low carb", though they can end up being the same thing sometimes. I get cranky and don't have the energy to workout as hard if I don't get at least 100 grams of complex carbs a day. Don't know how you atkins/nocarb people do it.

    For those of you saying things like "a calorie is a calorie", it's actually not true for everyone. Everybody's bodies are different. My body in particular, to my extreme dismay, does not lose weight as quickly when I eat higher glycemic foods. It really sucks but that's just the way my body functions.

    Yup. It is. Keto is <50. Plain ol' low-carb is 50-100. Lower carb tends to be 100-150. But it's your show, you can do it however you like. That's the beauty of it all. :smile:

    Congrats on what you've accomplished so far.

    I've been keto for over a year and all 91lb was lost on this plan. I currently keep it 40g or less, but spent most of the time at less than 20g.

    Watch your macros (which will keep your cals reasonable) and be consistent over time and you should do fine.

    is that even the topic here? Or is this just a general thread to post anything?

    FYI - 1000 calories of donuts = 1000 calories of vegetables from an energy standpoint, however, they are not the same nutritionally.

    Do you have a medial condition? I would assume yes...

    OP, if you find you need support or have any low-carb specific questions the following group is good for that.

    Sorry but this is a public forum and just because you are the OP doesn't mean you can dictate what others post...

    Low carb is fine but not necessary and once you introduce them back you will find an influx of weight gain...why? a few reasons, glycogen stores being filled and there goes your calorie deficit...that is why moderation and no elimination is typically a better approach.
