How many carbs a day do you all shoot for? I make 50 the ceiling, and most days i am around 30. I've just been doing this for about four months. There have been maybe three days when i went above 50.

I am a recently diagnosed type 2 diabetic, and eating low carb has meant i don't have to take meds for the diabetes. That makes me pretty faithful. I tried the med (a pill), and it made me sick as a dog. So low carb it is. I am also losing weight.

I can't say I've had many of the other purported benefits of low carb. I do feel less fuzzy, more clear headed. But i don't have loads of extra energy. That is probably because of other health conditions i have.
