BeastWoman, everyone is different when it comes to carb intake. I upped my carb intake and actually feel like I have stalled out a bit. So I think I am going to go back to phase 1 for a week, then do what they do on Atkins - up my carbs every week. (Though I think I'll go for 10g a week instead of 5, since you eat more carbs on SB anyways). That way, I can get a better idea of how much carb-y stuff I can eat and still lose weight.
