Can someone tell me please??

[emmyn74]

I am on my 9th day of induction and have not had one cheat day yet. My husband even made double fudge brownies last night for himself and I did not have any !! Yay!
Anyway, I have cut out caffeine and sugar but I am wondering if I need to be cutting out salt as well. I have searched on the forums and I have not found anything about this.
Also, when counting the amount of carbs for the day (20 max) do I have it right that you take the total amount of carbs and subtract the fiber and that is your actual total?
Any help with these questions will be much appreciated. Thanks guys.

you dont have to cut it out, but you dont want to be having too much either, its not good for you and can make you retain water, as long as you're not having lots you're good!

and yes you have the net carb calculation correct too, carb minus fibre = net carb

Thank you Emma for answering my questions for me. I will try to cut down on my salt because I think I may have been having a little too much in my new WOE.

I use Mortons Lite Salt and Low Sodium Soy Sauce to cut down on sodium. It also helps me maintane my normal blood pressure. I also add fresh herbs when cooking rather than adding salt, really flavors things up.

I believe in any switch with salt it should be to use sea salt.
