HI MMicky!

I count all the foods I eat on PP...what I do at the end of the day, is subtract fiber carbs and sugar alcohols from the total carb count to give me the Effective Carb Count (ECC or NET carbs).

Example:
Carbs: 45
Fiber: 15
Alcohol: 5
Net carbs or ECC=25


Using fitday.com you can find out what the egg white carb count is.. cause it will depend on the size egg, or amount of whites...( 1 egg white, cooked=0.339g carb)

Some people dont count the carbs in a serving of lettuce, that is strictly up to you, I imput everything.

Hope this answers your questions, and welcome to PP!
