I want to start LCHF, but don't want to reduce weight. How many carbs maximum can I consume daily..?

[Jaffy]

I am 40 years, diabetic type 2, height 5ft 9inches, weight 74 kgs. How many grams carbs can I consume daily and how much FAT...?

Kindly give your valuable suggestions

[MikePollard]

If you drop carbs to the absolute minimum and get them from green leafy vegetables you will be on the right track. If you increase natural fats (not man made seed oils) to 70 -80% of your diet you will maintain your weight.

Follow this. And remember you need to be a lil patient. The diet plan do not work as allopathy. It takes its own time and vary from person to person.

One single diet will never give the results what you are looking for.

Hi Arun,

I have read many saying their weight dropped with LCHF...?

Kindly suggest

[mzb007 in reply to Jaffy]

Yes. To some it does. But you have to decide to check and address diabetes first or maintain weight.

Weight loss can also happen with Metformin and

Uncontrolled BS with or without medicine.

Yes LCHF will reduce the weight.

The initial weight loss is from glycogen stores with water. Once you settle with the diet there won't be further weight loss depending upon your genetic predisposition.
