How Many Carbs In A Day?

So when I asked my dietician how many carbs I should be consuming in a day, I never got a straight answer. They have definite guidelines for protein, but not carbohydrates. So my question to my fellow RNYers: How many carbs do you average per day?

I would love that answer too! I'm 2 months out of VSG today. I get in 60-100 grams of protein but don't know the carb limit.

I was told 80-100 per day by my nut.

I'm typically around 30 carbs per day. Lately I've thrown caution to the wind though and have been eating sugar. Unfortunately I don't dump and sugar is so tempting. I have an appt tomorrow with my nut so I'm going to ask her how many carbs I should be having a day. I need to get back on track and not eat sugar anymore. It's my kryptonite.

Also, those are supposed to be good complex carbs, not crap carbs (ya know the tasty ones).

I was told 50 to 80 complex (good) carbs a day and gradually increase after your first year to max of 130 depending your body's sweet spot, activity etc..
