Hi all, new here
I am pre diabetic. I was told last year and am having another blood check at the end of this month so hopefully my blood is normal.
When i got the news i was 20st. Im now 15st and have lost 5st so far thanks to the primal lifestyle ( im not looking at this as a diet, this is my new eating way, i look at as im going to eat this way for life)
I still have another 5 stone to go to be a healthy weight for my age and height. ( Dr told me 10-12 stone is a healthy weight for me) i want to get back to 10st as that what i use to be.
My question is on carbs on the primal website mark says that for weight loss that you can have upto 100g of carbs a day. The thing is i have stayed lower then this at first as my personal trainer advised i stay lower around no more than 80g of carbs a day ( when i was bigger) now im half way through my weight loss journey my trainer said i coukd now go up to what mark says on his site but still reccomended to stay a lottle lower at 90g of carbs a day. I worried if i might not loose weight if i up it to 90g? He says thats still low enough to loose weight.
Iv calculated what i ate last week. Keep in mind i eat whole foods , i dont eat takaways, i dont eat processed junk food. I eat only real healthy foods and stick to the diet 95% of the time. The 5% thats not primal is my oat milk i drink ( im allergic to dairy and most nuts) iv tried all plant based milks but oatly is the only one i like.
Some days im below 90g and others im only just over. But i have never reached 100g like it says on the primal site.
Is it ok to go slightly over 90g and still loose weight?
