can eat a moderate carb diet (say 100g to 150g of carbs/day) and be just fine.


Sorry but my thought is no way, no how...........
Ask some who is at goal or close to it and you will find out that going back to that level of carbs will pack the weight right back on.

Between 2006 and 2009 I lot 100+ pounds and have kept it off ever since. But I’ve also been stalled since 2009 though I still have 100 more pounds (minimum) I’d like to lose. Even keeping carbs low didn’t cause any more weight to come off. But I also experimented at higher carbs and at 100+ carbs a day I didn’t lose any weight either, but then again I didn’t gain anything back even at 100+ a day for months in end. So everyone is different. You are still very early in your journey. Really too early to start thinking about beer or ice cream. 😉 Just concentrate on one day at a time. You whole viewpoint may change as you go on.
