HELP! Fitday?

[Stefanie]

Hey everyone, today is day #1 and for the first time ever, I'm trying to enter everything into fitday and keep track of what I'm eating. I posted this in the STAC forum, but wanted to post it in here incase no one is in that forum.

So far I've only had one meal today, and I entered it into fitday. I was really surprised to see that it was 13 carbs! I don't know if I entered everything in right or not, but here is what I had:

omelette w/ 3 med. sized eggs (fitday says they are 4 carbs)
2 oz. of cheese (I customized it from the packaging and it's 1 carb)
6 pieces of bacon (0 carbs)
1/2 cup of mushrooms in omelette (fitday says 4 carbs)
1/2 cup of green pepper in omelette (fitday says 5 carbs)
1 tbs of butter to sautee the mushrooms and peppers (0 carbs)

Is this really 13 carbs?! How am I supposed to get in 2 more cups of veggies plus eat 1 or 2 more oz. of cheese if I only have 7 carbs left?

Any help would be appreciated!

Are you subtracting the fiber to get your NET carbs?

[Stefanie]

NOPE! I forgot about fiber. I think I assumed that fitday knew I was on Atkins or something, lol. Thank you for your help.
