I have looked through the help menu but could not find an answer to this question I have so I am posting it here. ~~I noticed under certain foods that I log in the food diary the carb entry has two numbers. One number having a bracket around it. What is that? Which number should I use? Thanks for any suggestions ~ cricketpup

It could be that one is your goal for the day and one is what you actually consumed.0

I would just stick to the first number not in brackets. Personally I don't do the "net carb" thing.0
