Carb questions
| Mon, 10-18-2004 - 11:53am |
I'm on a diet that I am allowing myself to have 1700 calories per day in order to lose some weight. I'm 207 pounds and 5' 8", 34 years old.
I was wondering with this amount of calorie intake, how many carbs should I be eating. I heard around 10 and that just can't be done! (Atkins crazed or something - 10!) SOmeone else told me 300g. That seems like an awful lot.
Any help you could provide would be appreciated.

Of course that's the normal amount, not if you're interested in cutting carbs

Hi willpower!
Thanks Miranda- you know I am always confused over this issue, but your points are exactly what I needed to see what was meant by your 10-50-40, lol!
And welcome to the board Willpower, I hope Miranda's post helped you figure things out!
