Fiber calculation

Hi
I moved fiber next to carbs so they would be together in the food diary making it easier to track net carbs. Now the carbs aren’t being calculated correctly. Example: I ate three baby carrots, it calculated 89 carbs. Has anyone had this problem and does anyone know how to fix it?

    Is everything doing this or just a random entry?

    It is likely not because you moved fiber next to carbs. Choose another carrot entry. There are many in the database that don't convert to other measures properly. I had a few raspberries change to something like 4000+ calories when I used a particular database entry.

    Yea, be careful which entry you choose. Many in the mfp are erroneous! Wish they would delete the errors but they haven’t!
