I've been on a low carb and calorie diet. How to eat back to normal (carbs) but maintain achieved goal weight?
I’ve been on a low calorie and most importantly low carbohydrate diet, and I’ve lost weight. Now that I’m at my goal weight, how can I start eating breads, rice etc. and continue to keep my weight?
Will suddenly eating carbohydrates back into my body make me fat again?
Or maybe should I eat carbs and add fat, then exercise again to keep it off?
Please help me, I just want to eat carbs and maintain my weight.
How to eat back to normal (carbs) but maintain achieved goal weight? Tell me the ways please. And what I should do.
Thanks!

You eat whole grains like brown rice not white unholy rice. They make bread with whole grains and pasta with brown rice. Just avoid wheat and white rice.
Learn the science of how to nourish your body thin, instead of starving your body fat. Good carbs like celery and carrots will never make you fat. Bad carbs like cake will, but you don’t need to know the whole science of glycemic load. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin and healthy.

Switching back to a higher carb diet is difficult because while on low-carb you were eating a higher level of fat than is healthy on a higher carb diet.
What I would strongly suggest is that you slowly raise your carb level by 5 grams per day for a full week and then another five carbs the next week, etc. until you start to gain. Once you gain go back one carb level. Then start cutting back on fat at the same carb level. Once you do that you can start increasing your carb level again.
Do know that once you raise your carb level high enough any cravings you had will return.
You might want to track your foods and carb level at a free on-line program like fitday.com. It does all the computing for you once you plug in your foods. It will be a great way to track what works and what doesn’t work for you.
Good luck. I’m a low-carber but have chosen to stay on it for life. I lost 70 lbs. in 2004 and am having no difficulty maintaining.
