Hello Natrushka,

My carbs WOULD be under 100, but when I add in a Balance or Zone Bar, plus a few "hidden" carbs in my peanuts or yogurt and BOOM, I'm up around 150 grams of carbs! I don't start to feel bad unless I get over 200, so there it is. That works out to about 40% of calories from carbs with a 2,000 calorie diet. Can you tell I started as a Zone diet fan?

When I'm down around 60-80 grams of carbs, I feel wonderful, but I just don't get enough calories. At that level, I loose weight too fast and risk having a nasty low calorie crash. Managing my muscle problems is just too tricky at that low calorie level.

It's interesting that you and the others can keep your carbs so low. Amazing. Well done. Who else keeps them really low?
