I got my macro numbers from IIFYM. It tells me I need to eat 35-42g fiber every day! 11-14 at every meal! What in the world do you eat on a keto diet to meet those numbers? I thought I was doing great to meet my carb, fat and protein numbers.

    It's called crazy. Something is clearly miscalculating. I'm lucky if I get 10g of fiber. And everything moves smoothly. Just ignore it.

    Yeah that's a crazy amount of fiber. Unless you eat a lot of cheese the keto diet doesn't require fiber really.

    But if you'd like fiber avocados and net-carb bread (grain free) are both great sources personally speaking.

    Thank you for your input. That calculator utilizes what kind of eating plan you're on but must still have some kind of glitch in it. I'll just stick with what I've been doing with concentrating on hitting my fat, protein and carb marks.
