Carb/Fiber Question

[sunflowergrl]

I am freaking a bit here!!! I had one cup Jicama and 2 poached eggs for breakfast, 2 cups mixed greens salad with Tuna and 3 tablespoons Bleu Cheese Dressing for lunch and according to Fitday, I have had 31 grams of Carbs, and 15 grams Fiber. I really hope this means I have only had 16 grams carbs!! This seems like so much!!!! I wanted to get some different veggies into my diet, but now I feel like I have messed my Induction up!!!! Will I still be in Ketosis??? What should I do?!?!?

Re: Carb/Fiber Question

We count net carbs on Atkins, not total carbs.

Net carbs = total carbs -fiber grams -(sugar alcohols for those who can tolerate them)

So, you are still below the 20 net carb Induction Limit.

You're doing great!

Re: Carb/Fiber Question

good for you if you look at the bottom of your carbohydrates column on fitday were you list your foods that number is the net carbs yours should say 16

Re: Carb/Fiber Question

And if you're following the rules of induction (eating those three cups of veggies from the acceptable food lists) there is no way you'll be over 20g of net carbs!
