    I'm eating too much carbs?

    I've been doing deficit for a while, i eat about 1400-1500 calories per day; because even if i have a flat belly, i have lower stubborn belly fat

    - I don't eat cakes, junk food.
    - I don't use salt (just a few times in the month, but just about a tea tsp)
    - I don't use sugar (maybe 1 o 2 times per month for the coffe, and again, i use just a teaspoon of sugar)
    - I don't eat bread (unless is whole grain bread)
    - I stopped eating white pasta and white rice since about 1 month.
    - I don't eat sauces, butter.
    - I don't eat fried foods.

    Basically, i got rid of most of the ''bad things'', the only thing that i do when i have NOTHING ''healthy'' to eat basically, is eat what is on the house but watching my calories and macros. Since i started, my boyfriend's mom bought me most of the foods, sometimes she can't (i didn't had a job until this month, and i was underage) and she don't eat healthy so she didn't really afford me enough healthy foods that can last during a month, so when i have nothing healthy to eat is basically because of that.

    In a good ''day'' (when i have healthy food) i can eat:

    Eggs, oatmeal, chicken, lean meat, whole grain rice, whole grain cereal, whole grain bread, green tea, low-fat milk, veggies and fruits basically.

    And in a bad ''day'' i have to make the not-so-healthy foods better:

    Vanilla Yogurt, pasta, white rice, crackers, etc. I eat them, because if not, i will start to starve which is worse.

    I don't do cardio because the neighborhood is not reaallly safe, i can't afford a gym, everything that i have done is at home, i have a gym machine that i use for weight training and i do bodyweight exercises such as squat.

    I don't have cravings unless i'm on those ''bad days'' that i don't have fruit or oatmeal.

    I eat about (max) 200g of carbs and the lowest 50/80g, my weight is: 53,9kg and my height: 1.60

    thanks

    There is no such thing as too much carbs provided that:
    - you can still meet your essential levels of protein and dietary fat (see Nutrition forum sticky threads)
    - you don't exceed your calorie target

    If you are losing about 1lb a week (as a long term average), you are doing fine.

    Thank you. So 200g of carbs isn't too much?
