Why do over all macros show as more than what we’ve logged?

When I check my macros, it states I’ve had 16g of carbs. But when I’ve counted the carbs from the individual items manual logs, my carbs are less than 9g! So what is the 16g?!

16 grams is probably counting fiber, 9 grams is probably not. That would be my guess. Show a screenshot if you can.2
