I stay under 50 carbs a day. I try and use no more than 16 at a meal or a snack. Occasionally I allow myself the rare increase. I follow the Atkins plan as an example to eat by. Check out his site on the web. I also use the Fitday.com site to journal my food. It keeps track for me of my protein, carbs, calories, etc each day. I strive for 90 grams of protein a day. Good luck.

I am 8 weeks on friday and I was on a plateat at 4 weeks. I broke my plateau this past week and lost 9 lbs over the weekend. I cut my carbs back and I am trying to keep them under 30 for a day. It seems to be working well for me. I have also upped my Vit C because I am not eating the fruit I used to.

I try to stay under 40 per day and using fitday is the only way I can do it. They are everywhere. Tiny rotten little suckers! The average woman has to eat 100 carbs per day to get out of ketosis. Interesting fact of the day as presented to me by the nutritionist. Good Luck!

I don't count or restrict carbs as a rule but when I do I try to stay under 30 per day. To jumpstart a stalled weightloss or to lose rapidly, try less than 20 a day or follow the Atkins guidelines.
