Ok, I went and looked at your journal and I can see where the carbs are coming from.
The good news is that I think overall your diet is REALLY healthy, other than being a bit carb heavy. But they seem to be good carbs for the most part, so that's also good news.
So just a few thoughts:
Fruit juice is (IMO) wasted calories and carbs for the most part.
And orange juice is probably the most carb heavy juice out there. Here's a list of juices and the amount of carbs they contain:
apple juice, unsweetened - 29g
cranberry juice - 36g
grape juice - 19g
grapefruit juice - 11g
lemon juice - 20g
lime juice - 23.5g
orange juice - 26g
pineapple juice - 34g
tomato juice - 5g
As you can see, if you MUST have juice, you're better off going for grapefruit juice, tomato juice (or V8). But really you're better off eating a whole orange than drinking a glass of OJ - with the whole orange you get more fiber and more protein than from just the juice. That's not to say I never drink fruit juice. I do sometimes have OJ for a post workout snack. I add a scoop of protein powder, which makes it the perfect combination of carbs/protein for post workout.
I noticed that you have croutons in your salad and those will add carbs as well.
Also you mentioned a low-fat dressing - the way that low-fat dressings stay flavorful is by adding sugar - i.e. carbs. Also a poppyseed dressing is going to be more carby than, say, an Italian dressing - one is sweet, one is not. In general, store bought dressings are going to be high in carbs. You're better off making your own dressings and vinaigrette when you can - it'll save on carbs and artificial ingredients.
Oh, and the curried soup? Did you make that yourself or is it store bought? If it's packaged, it probably has a good bit of sugar or sweetener in it as well, which translates directly into carbs.
I noticed also that the fruit that you're eating is fairly high carb - pineapple, strawberries, etc.
Finally, beans are also pretty carby ... and I noticed you have beans in your salads a lot, both black and garbanzo.
Ok, so how to fix it. That's the tricky part because I think that most of what you're eating is really good (and btw, that kale thing sounded incredibly yummy and I'm going to have to try to make it).
What I would do is this ... try to reduce carbs where you can by avoiding things like fruit juice, croutons, etc., and maybe cutting back on the fruit just a hair, but don't ditch the beans and other healthy stuff. Instead try to balance out the carbs you're eating by adding protein and healthy fats.
Try adding some avocado to your salads. Drizzle your veggies with a little olive oil. Instead of croutons on your salad, throw on a couple of T of slivered almonds or chopped pecans for crunch. Those things will take care of the healthy fats.
Then for protein, maybe try making your smoothies in the mornings with 1/2 silken tofu and 1/2 yogurt. Or try a scoop of protein powder in them to help boost your protein intake. Add some eggs to your diet - boiled, scrambled, in frittatas, fried, however you choose ... I egg has 6g protein, which is a pretty good deal for something that's only 70 calories.
For a snack, have some edamame or combine some edamame (soy bean) with your regular black beans in a salad.
I'm sure there are other things that aren't occurring to me right now, but I think that's a good start.
(I know .. I'm a geek. I love the challenge of putting together balanced meals ... it's like working a puzzle and just really intrigues me.
