Default another dumdum question cuz i did atkins the wrong way....

Okay, I havent been subtracting fiber. Ever. So can I jump right in and start or should I do it a lil at a time? Do you think I could gain weight if I start subtracting fiber? Thank you all for your patience O

If you have been staying at 20 carbs and not subtracting fiber-you've been eating too little veggies! Go ahead and go up to 20 net carbs. You will still lose and will be able to poop too!

I agree. 20 grams net will NOT make you gain. If anything, you should be, ahem, moving better. Eat more veggies!
