But just saying you counted net carbs doesn't say how many you actually consumed for your daily carb count, and maybe for you your CCL fit in that amount. My NUT says don't use net carbs.

But I'm saying it worked counting net carbs.

The difference counting net carbs or just regular carbs is going to be pretty negligible (unless you're a diabetic then you have your own set of rules). Assuming you're eating around the average of 20-30g of Fiber a day you're really talking about a 40-60 calorie a day difference. Which is only a 4-5 pounds a year difference (which isn't much when you're talking about bariatric sized people)

I loved those preop. Filled you up. Good fiber, worked for many things. Favorite was to make them into a baked burrito. Crunchy!

i have not tried them post up. Afraid they are kinda Gummy. Plus I have to focus in getting my Protein in and have no room for extra non protein stuff.

I actually ran eating these by my NUT and she was okay with it. She said to count NET carbs due to the fiber so I think everyone NUT and plan is a little different. Also my food tracker counts both the NET and the Straight carbs so I can see how much I'm getting of straight carbs vs. the net carbs.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
