I've always liked chewing sugar free gum and can go thru a pack or two a day. Well, guess what, never bothered to read the label and discovered that it has carbs!!! So I've been going over my carbs without realizing it. Some are two carbs per stick and serving is 15. What's your take on it? I'm really disappointed and just bought several packages the other day. Today I only chewed a few because I discovered it this morning.

    If you feel that you need gum, Mist Orbit is a good one to chew.

    Boomer, does it have carbs? I've been going over without realizing it, of course I've lost 42lbs and always chewed gum, so wonder if i should worry about it or not, what do u think, I've bought a few already. LOL

    2g of carbs is like 8 calories...I am pretty sure you are burning that off by chewing...don't sweat it, it isn't that serious

    Are the carbs from sugar alcohols? I thought didn't count those.
