Hello There

I have only been doing the low-carb diet for three days. I have been looking at this site. I have a couple of questions. I have the carb counting book suggested, but when i see som people post the carbs are they subtracting the protein? How does that work? Also what about sugar-free popscile and jello are they ok to eat as a snack? Any help would be great

thanks everyone
