It doesn't seem like it subtracts out dietary fiber to give you net carbs... is this right?

I ate two pcs of celery with cream cheese and the celery was 3ish carbs but has like 2gms of fiber.

I think you can set it up so it comes with the fibre already subtracted out, or do that separately.

there are two totals, if you're subtracting fibre (a lot of us don't) look at PECC

From the FAQ sticky at the top of this forum:

Q
Has fibre already been subtracted in MyPLAN?
A
Yes and no. It depends which option you choose in Edit Settings.
If you wish to subtract the fibre yourself, and have the fibre displayed in your Daily Entry, select Show Fiber Count.
If you wish to have the fibre already subtracted, select Show PECC.
Note that if you choose Show PECC, you can still see how much fibre you have consumed by going to Basic Data in your Daily Summary.

HTH!
