Carbs and fiber

I was wondering if there was anyway to have the displayed carbohydrates on the daily menu adjusted against the fiber that is present in the food. Currently at the end of every day I have to go into each individual item to subtract the fiber from the carbohydrates displayed number.

    Why ? Whats your logic? As someone who tracks fiber then you just get used to which foods have a lot and which do not. You should be more interested in getting your aggregate score to the recommeneded minimum. It mustifies me what you are doing and why. Keep it simple.

    Fiber doesn't have any calories in it?

    You can adjust the entries yourself to not include the fibre... You're my complete opposite. It drives me up the wall when fibre isn't included in the carb total!

    People on Ketosis count net carbs that is the logic and reason God, sorry you weren't informed beforehand ...

    Just search for items with net carbs, if not you can start to create those items so the next person can find them easier.

    If I'm not mistaken, there's a script that you can install to calculate net carbs.

    I think this is it. https://github.com/Surye/mfp-keto-userscript

    Thanks for throwing some light onto it. No need to be sorry or disingenuous though.
