Default Newbie Question!

I have read the book and have stuck to the induction plan and have lost weight.

Now going into plan 2 I have a question, Im confused about a label on one of the Atkins bars.

I have been taking total carbs and subtracting fibre to get net carbs. Example: 20g of carbs - 2 grams of protien = 18g of net carbs.

On the lable of the Atkins Endulge Coconut Bar it states:
5g protien, 1g sugar, 170 cal, 3g net atkins count

In the Nutritional facts it reads:
5g protien, 1g sugar, 170 cal, 19g carbs, 2g fibre

I would subtract fibre from carbs and come up with 17g of carbs.

My question is why the pakage reads 3g net atkins count.

What am I not getting here.

Thank you for any help.....need to understand to move forward, I'm afraid to eat this bar.....lol
