Default Chicken Broth

I am going to cook a roast in my crock pot using Chicken Broth. It is a left over can of 99% Fat Free stuff (from my Weight Watcher days). I pour a couple of cans into the crock pot and then just stick the roast in there for hours.

A serving size is 1 cup with total carbs at 1g (no fiber, so a solid 1g). There are 2 servings per can. So, if I use 2 cans just to cook the meat in my crock pot, how many carbs do I plug in? Obviously, I am not eating 4 servings as I am not drinking 2 cans of this stuff.

I am just starting today. I have tried this in the past and my cravings for carbs during my second week is like a heroin addiction. I would chase down a potato during these cravings. I am hoping I can do it this time. I have tried Weight Watchers and I simply KNOW I am eating way too many carbs, even though I am well within my points. I lose some, then gain some..., back and forth on WW's.

Thanks for any help...
