Day one I wanted to follow the Atkins induction 20 g plan but had a hard time but I think I still did good for my very first time....I had a total of 30 net carbs and I worked out....how was that for day one? Friend me and critique my diary. I can take it. Will definitely learn from your advice as a newbie!

Also to calculate net carbs is it carbs minus fiber? OR. Carbs minus fiber minus sugar?

    Carbs minus fiber and sugar alcohols (fake sweeteners)

    That's what I thought. Thanks
  • warning - that 'malitol' in adkin's products can result in some real 'off gassing'...you might want to hold off on those products if you have an evening with company lol
