So the past week I've gained 3 lbs. I'm 4 months out, and am at 800-900 calories per day. Exercise 45 min 3 X week. Since I'm eating a bit more, my carbs have gone up slightly. I've added in some baby carrots with hummus, broccoli, and about 6 water crackers per week that I have when I eat either tuna or egg salad. I've also had a half slice of 12 grain bread with a 1/2 tablespoon peanut butter for a snack a couple days before my exercise. My daily protein is anywhere from 75-90 g/ day. My carbs are (average) 45g/ day. Fat is usually around 30g/ day.
I'm not sure if it's the increase or calories, or if 45g of carbs is too much?
How many carbs do most of you eat in a day?
TIA
