I'm generally around 50g/day. I have a hard time in between though.... if I cheat too much in a day or over a weekend, I'll spend the next few days hungry (no matter how much water I'm drinking).
When I've done the weight loss thing a couple times, I don't like doing more than bend-don't-break for maybe a day... I hate the thought of being at a 500 calorie deficit for 6 days, just to go 1000+ over and wipe out two of those days. And no beer at all, since the stuff I drink packs some calories.
When maintaining, I'm good at sticking with it during the week and not getting too crazy during the weekend.
