How do you live? I can only survive on 75% carbs.

I discourage anyone from going low carb.  I encourage everyone to avoid refined carbs.  Yes, it's good to avoid flour, refined sugars, etc.  No, it's a terrible idea to avoid beans, broccoli, fruit, etc.  I probably fall a little shy of 75% because I eat a lot of nuts and seeds which are heavy on healthy fats (including high amounts of omega 3s in the chia and flax seed that I add to my fruit salads), but I'm probably in the 60-70% carbohydrate range in my diet.  I haven't updated Cronometer.com for a while, probably worth checking again.
