[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1786202, member: 41816"] There is no hard and fast universally accepted amount of carbs that is considered 'low carb' But a lot of places, diets and websites have a general consensus that anything below 130g-150g carb is low carb. While anything above 130g ish can also be considered moderate carb. There is certainly a fair amount of grey area overlap! The problem then comes when a 5 foot sedentary woman tries to compare her 'low carb' with a fit, active 6 foot 4 man. Tricky, eh? So, on balance, from my viewpoint, you probably do fall into the 'low carb' zone. And if you are T1, trying to gain weight, then your current carb level may well be stopping that regain. [/QUOTE]
