Hi Stacey,

Why exactly do you want to lose 10 pounds? The reason I ask is that, at 5'4 and 123 pounds, you are already towards the lower end of the normal weight range.

If you just want to switch to low carb eating (always a good idea, IMHO) start whichever eating plan you choose at the maintenance level.

And yes, as Cindy Sue said, you really need to do some reading. All carbs are not equal!
