Hidden carb nightmare!!
OK- I'm really upset. I have been carefully watching everything I eat and reading the carb count on everything. I just used your hidden carb counter and found out that I have been eating between 30-40 g carbs a day instead of the 10-20 that I thought I was based on the label.
What's the deal? I used the lowcarber.org Hidden Carb calculator
I eat Flax-O-Meal which states 2 g ECC (carb 12g fiber 10g) - well the hidden carb counter calculated it at 13!
I have Designer Whey shakes which states 1.5 ECC (carb 2 g fiber .5) - well the counter calculated 4.53 g
I take some fiber supplements that state an ECC of 2g (carbs 14 fiber 12) and the counter calculated 7g.
That's really ridiculous and I'm so confused and angry that I just want to scream! I've been at the same weight for 1 week (still lost 8 lbs and some inches- so I'm not complaining) but am wondering if those items didn't ruin my induction!
Do I have to doublecheck everything now? What numbers are real? I mean the difference is huge! This can't be right!
PLEASE HELP!!!
