FatSecret foodlog - net carbs?

[philana]

Hi y'all,

I was hoping you could help me figure out the foodlog I get from FatSecret (I use the iPad app). The numbers and such are in English, but the fodnames in dutch, sorry about that.

I can't figure out if the netcarbs are 123 or 123-34fiber=89. I am trying to lower my carb intake, and I know I should probably eat less fruit, or fruits with more fiber than sugar carbs, but first I need to know where I stand. If next carbs are 89, then I am doing fine already. If not, then I need to work on it more.

Thanks!

I think typically when you look up nutrition facts for foods, they give you the straight-up carb count - and then you do the math on your own to figure out your *net* carb count with the fiber worked in. Just a quick look (with a translator and caloriecount.about.com) shows that your calories/fat/carbs/protein counts are right on. I would go with 89 [net] for the day.

thanks itchy07 - I was thinking the same but wasn't sure. I am new to counting my carbs, and the fatsecret does it well.. so hopefully I can figure it out!

I know on my FatSecret thingy it has a box you can check to see your net carbs.
