Atkins people: how do you track net carbs?

The diary, as far as I can tell, only tracks carbs so I always go over in my daily carbs. What is the trick for tracking net carbs in the diary? Thanks.

    The only way I've found to track net carbs is using the MFP app for my phone. When I log into the app, I can click on "daily" and right below carbs, it shows fiber, so I just mentally subtract and track my net carbs that way. I usually end up logging all of my food through the app. That's just easier than entering through the computer and then getting on my phone to see where I am for the day.

    31,000 low carb folks are using it and it works wonderfully with MyFitnessPal. :)

    Here is a link to a picture of how it looks....from my diary.
