Hello,
Could someone explain to me net carbs? In order to loose weight should I have a negative number for net carbs?

Thanks!!

    I've just embarked on my low carb diet. I'm keeping my carb intake under 20 grams per day. You need to eat the carbs in small amounts during the day so you don't spike your insulin levels. After keeping your carbs below 20 for about 2 days you should enter into lipolysis. That's the process where your body switches from burning glucos to burning fat as your primary fuel.
