I'm trying to understand the difference between "carbs" and "net carbs".

I found this:

"For low-carb dieters, fiber carbs don't really count as carbs. For example, a 1-cup serving of cooked broccoli provides 11.2 grams of total carbohydrate and 5.1 grams of fiber for a net carb contribution of 6.1 grams."

Sounds like cheating.. for example my flax meal has nearly equal amounts of carbs and fiber, dies that mean it counts as nothing and I can eat all I want?


I guess it is only cheating depending on what approach you have to eating.
This recipe works great for me but probably not for some others.
To each there own as they say.
Some have to be really carb conscience and others do not.
For me personally this is a good way to use left over meat and eat something very tasty that won't hurt MY body in regards to weight loss.
