Surprize Decision

Hi BOTT,
I love black bean soup, which basically consist of black turtle beans, onion, celery, carrots anc a can of rotel w/tomatoes and green chiles.  My meals have been planned of late with keeping my carbs down.  I usually put the info in my menu and have an idea. 
HOWEVER last night I got into the mood to make black bean soup, to my surprize, a cup has 43 carbs. 
I have been doing so well lately on carb count.  I only ate a half cup but it was at the end of the day and those carbs were not in my play book. 
It's not a big deal, I have eaten 5  - 10 cookies in one setting knowing the outcome. 
All that being said, my point is planning is essential if you are counting.
Have a wonderful day.

Remember, however, that any grams of fiber (which is very prevelant in beans, celery, carrots and tomato) will negate that many grams of carbs. Fiber is insoluable carbs, which act as filler that we don't absorb. Why not recount that!

Sounds good.  Fitday gave me the results.  I'm all for a recount.  Thanks.
