net carb on my fitness pal

joyfullee

I added all my food into my diary on MyFitnessPal...Can I just subtract the total number of fiber from the total number of carbs and say that is my net carb total for the day? or do I have to be very specific with each item? I feel like the answer to this is very simple and I'm just having a hard time wrapping my brain around it for some reason...maybe I'm in a low carb fog..I'm in my second week! :-)

Yes you can just subtract daily totals is what I do
