MFP and net carbs?

Midnightgypsy0

I've been logging everything and keeping my carbs in the 20 to 35 range most days.
I see references to "net carbs". Carbs minus fiber equals net carbs.
Is that correct?
Is it "carbs" I should be tracking, or "net carbs"?
Guess there is no way to set MFP up to do the math?

Check out the Launchpad entry on the addons for net carbs:

Nope. Says desktop version. I use the mobile app all day.

It's your choice. I always counted total carbs. If I wanted to eat a bunch of broccoli one day, I just allowed a bit more that day but still counted total.
I'm not convinced that some fiber does affect insulin do I count it all.
