How Many Carbs Do You Eat Daily?



Recommended Posts

I'm using myfitnesspal so I'm getting a good idea of my carb consumption & wondered what most of you try to stick to? Or do some of you not keep count? Just curious....

How far out are you? I am 5 weeks out and honestly I haven't kept a strict count on anything bc I know I'm not eating near enough to do any damage. I am pretty much living on Protein Drink and Water. :/ Sorry I couldn't be of much help,I would ask your nutritionist how many carbs you should be having.

I don't track my carbs at all. Actually, I guess MFP tracks them anyway and I just looked. Yesterday I had 65 carbs, along with 73 g of Protein and 72 oz of Water. I concentrate on the protein and water and let the rest fall where it may.

Lissa I agree with you , after getting getting the Water and Protein in there is not much more room. We all need some carb, so I tend not worry about that too.

I run about 175 grams per day. But, I know that's not the norm here. I've lost 30 pounds in six weeks, for what its worth.

I have eaten at least 100 carbs a day for the past 4 months........

I never controlled to carbs, only Protein and Water. I was typically running 70-100 per day the first three months or so and 100-120 per day after that, when I started adding some complex carb to better fuel workout endurance. Now, in maintenance, I'm typically running in the 150-200 range. Not playing the low carb/ketosis game certainly didn't slow down my weight loss (or at least I sure didn't want to lose any faster.)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
