I want to know what is that you eat to not go over 150 carbs and maintain 1700 cals..

Hi I am 5.4 36 yrs old wanting to lose 15 pounds...i have been here for 1 yr but still stuck...

I upped my calories to 1800 after having netted for 1300 for the past year..because of no change...MFP says I will gain weight more that what I have logged in here...but i am going to stick to it for 1 month to see my results as for over a year i have been in 1200 cal to 1400 as my BMR is 1350...I have 10 pounds to lose…

I have plateaued for almost 6 months and then gained weight..now I am going to Net 1800 as my BRM is 1380 and TDEE is 2023. It was so difficult to eat 1700 cal after having an average net of 1300....will give this try for a month...

I also have 10 pounds to lose and have been up and down 4 pounds since last 1 yr...I am not able to go on low carb no matter how much I try...specially Indian food....

No one :(

How do you manage to have ONLY 20 Carbs...and what strength training do you do? Since cant see your diary...its difficult to believe to have such low carbs...
