Hi, mammoth!
I try to count everything, including ground flax seed, flax seed oil capsules, essential fatty acids capsules, psyllium husks--- everything. For one thing, the calories do add up, especially for those of us who are shorter than you, and/or women with slower metabolisms than you male folks. Also, after learning from all of you that the most successful Atkiners ingest more fat, I find that my daily flax seed oil and EFA have often helped me get within the optimum percentage range.
By the way, speaking of ground flax seed . . . I LOVE it with sliced strawberries with fresh whipped cream. Honestly, if you sprinkle a couple of spoonsful of ground flax seed and close your eyes, you could swear it is an ice cream sundae --- or, at least I could!
Great work on your weight losses!
Whammy
