Nice, Bonnie.
My way of "counting" carbs is a huge cheat. The veggies I eat are almost exclusively leafy greens, and not much of them.
If I have other veggies--tomatoes, cukes, even carrots, I make sure to have very little of them, and that's my carbs for the day.
The only exception to that rough rule is cruciferous veggies, like Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, etc. They are so very low in carbs that I can eat a serving of them, like I would with leafy greens.
Fruits are a rarity, and never more than 1/4 cup, and then it's berries. Because, again, very low carb, for fruit, anyway.
