I don't count carbs -- I have been doing this for a year and I know what I can eat. As far as foods with carbs go, I basically eat unlimited lowcarb vegetables (I love salads!), some cheese (no more than a couple of ounces a day), one or two servings of lowcarb fruit a day, and some nuts. I also very occasionally (one a month or so) eat something somewhat higher in carbs, such as an ear of corn-on-the-cob. I don't eat any artificial sugar (including splenda) or special lowcarb products. I'm trying to make this a way of eating, not a diet, and I can't imagine being on a way of eating where I have to weigh and measure my food every day.

However, for any newbies reading this, I will say that when I started out I was much more careful about counting carbs and frequently used the carb counter on this site to check out foods I was uncertain about. Switching over to a less structured version of low carbing was a gradual process.
