Carbs

[MrsG 329]

Ok I tried using the search function but couldn't come up with an answer. I would just like to know how many carbs I should be eating a day. I don't eat any grains but things like Beans and crab also have carbs. I'm almost 3 months out and want to make sure I'm not overdoing it with the carbs! Thanks!

My docs say no carbs at all but dont think it can be done. I sometimes only take in 10 carbs a day and others it can be more.

My program doesn't have a carb restriction - they only care about me hitting my Fluid and Protein goals.

That said, they also want me to always approach my food choices from a Protein first, then vegetables, then starchy carbs (if there's any room left).

According to myfitnesspal I average 50g of carbs or less (with an occasional spike) per day.

I've finished week #14 and am in week #15 with no stalls to date.

I was told not to worry about carbs too much...just make sure the carbs I take in are complex carbs....they keep you fuller longer...

Ok, that's what my nut told me too. I hit 100 carbs today and thought that was a lot, but when I went back and looked I usually hit around 50, somedays 20. I guess I just panicked when I saw the 100 for today in MFP, it looked like a lot. I ate a lot of Beans today and they added up! Thank you!

My doc wants me to eat 50 or less.
