Fiber &carbs. do you subtract?

I've read about it,  I've heard about.  I haven't been doing it but was wondering if you did?

It's a trap. People do net carbs, because it gives them an excuse to eat more carbs.

Untrue.

I do net carbs because my body and blood sugar does not react the same to all carbs.  My wife is a Type 1 diabetic and has moved to net carbs and her A1C has actually improved over the past 6 months.

This just came up last night at the support group run by my surgeon group's nutritionists.  They recommend 50-100g carbs per day (obviously a wide range and it depends on a lot of things on which number they recommend for an individual).  This freaks me out after being low-carb for so long.  Anyway...she did say that when you are calculating your grams for the day to meet their requirements, you subtract the fiber.

It does make sense.  thanks :)

50 to 100 grams of carb can seem like a lot but I find that I often have this from fruits and vegetables. Today my raspberries for breakfast were 15 gr carb. I am currently eating sm banana's for the potassium before exercising and that is 19 gms. By the end of today I will eat at least 100 grms of carb without eating bread, pasta, rice etc

Before WLS, my doctor recommended a three-session, one-hour diabetes education class where I learned about net carbs.  I got a bill for the class never dreaming it would be $800--I should have subtracted $780 from that for what I thought the class was net worth!   Today, I count protein grams, number of supplements, and ounces of water.

Oh yeah, just realized another important thing I count:  my Blessings

Nope, never. I equate that to "eating back calories burned by light exercise". Both practices are anti-productive.

Exactly!! It's just an excuse to eat more which is never a good thing!!
