Question:
How many carbs should I be eating?

Hi! I am about 16 weeks post Lap RNY...I was wondering how many carbs I should be eating per day...I think I eat too many at this point, but I'm not sure. Can someone let me know how many I should eat per day? Thanks a million!    — Binxalways (posted on August 21, 2002)

Elizabeth, I am 2 days short of being 16 weeks post-op. I can't speak for anyone else but I try not to go over 35 grams of carbs per day. Although there are days I've gone as high as 55 grams or as low as 8 grams. So I took an average of all of my carbs so far for the month of August. I average 33.85 grams per day. And when I look over the numbers, it's pretty consistent that my grams of carbs are in the low 30's. Have you tried Fitday.com? It really helps me know how much I've eaten. :o)
