Hi there, any idea just how many grams of carbs I should be eating a day ?

Is there a rule, I’m 18 stone so have a lot to lose !

Most of us try to keep the carbs down to 50g or less per day.
This is because that figure should put your body into ketosis or fat burning mode
Best of luck on the journey, it may be eventful but we’re all here to offer support.

Hi Simon, as Bill said 50g or less of carbs. I have used calorieking to find carbs not on packaging – but you need to deduct the fibre from the carbs for the correct figure in britain 🙂
