i have had a trainer in the past who put me on a diet where you have 100g of carbs a day ~25g at each of 4 meals, 4 hrs apart. good sources are oatmeal (1/2 cup), ezekiel bread (2 slices-- they have good cinnimon raisin bread that can help with a sweet tooth), 1/2 cup cooked rice, 1 6oz potato, 2 oz uncooked Pasta.

aviod fruits and juices.

i think anythin 100g carbs or less is considered low carb. it has even been done with fast food (watch the movie Fat Head).

good luck!

oh also, Fiber is often added to g carb on labels, so you can often subtract the g fiber from g carb to know the true carb count.

I also was told about a 100 a day it's not a lot when you look at it
