how many carbs do you take in daily?

I use my fitness pal... And I rarely do the recommended. I usually average 50 per day.

My guilty pleasure is 1/2 oz of Cheetos early in the day... I know its bad but I compensate with super healthy meal choices!!! It's all about portions and balancing it out!!!

You're going to get a lot of different answers from that question because we're all told different things from our surgeons and nutritionists.

I am supposed be eating no more than 125g of carb daily, per my nutritionist.

Most here tend to do very low carb, I however don't go low carb and still do well. Perfect example of how everyone's body and needs are different.

Im not a low carber, because i e never really felt it necessary to cut them completely, and i lost a lot if weight very successfully.

I start my day with a bowl of oatmeal, or muesli. lunch does tend to be lower carb, Soup or a salad. dinner is sometimes Pasta or includes potato or rice.

I thought I was being super naughty on the days I take in 70 carbs.... I'm am open to try different approaches, but funny thing is, when I intake more carbs, I lose more ounces to pounds of weight loss.

I'm very insulin resistent so I try to stay under 30 per day. But that's just me. My only carbs come from dairy and veggies.

Remember, the less carbs you eat a greater weight loss.

Thanks... When I went for fill yesterday I explained my exercise activity and Doc reviewed my diet log, said keeping under 90g is ideal since I do work out more than 6 hrs per week!!!!
