[vicki s 146]

How many carbs are considered low ...I saw so one post they weren't supposed to have more than 30?? I eat about 70 or 80!! Eeek!!! Are we supposed to be in ketosis? Is this why I'm losing so slow? Can anyone help me out here...also, what's up with 6 months and slower wt loss??

Per my program I'm supposed to get 80 a day divided out approx 20 grams 4 times a day. HOWEVER, like you said, some docs push an ultra low carb diet....

My doc doesn't put a limit in carbs, just says eat Protein first or eat the carbs with Protein (like tuna and crackers).

My doc likes me to stay between 80 and 100 grams a day... Protein first ALWAYS, then fit in some carbs with each meal. She said that our brains need carbs to function properly and she wants people to eat a "real life" diet because there's no way someone will eat 20-30 grams of carbs for the rest of their life. Her big thing is to track every bite that goes in to my mouth, and I do! You'll lose a bit slower than those eating low low carb, but there's no way you won't lose if you're only eating 800-1000 cals a day and exercising even if you're eating 100 grams of carbs! Keep it up girl! You're going to be JUST fine!! <3
