I'm also new to keto. Is calculating net carbs as simple as subtracting grams of fiber from grams of carbs on the nutrition label? I keep reading different things online

Sugar alcohols do not count towards net carbs - they’re only relevant because they spike your insulin if you’re a diabetic.

Yep! Net carbs is just total carbs (g) - fiber (g). Some people also subtract sugar alcohols but I don’t eat much with sugar alcohols. If I do, I don’t subtract those from total carbs.

Depends on how strict you do your Keto, some count all carb w no deductions, some deduct fiber only from things that grow out of the ground, some deduct all fiber and processed sugar alcohols

The stress of this job ruined my life.
The stress has lead to an eating disorder that I can’t get control of. I’ve lost 25 pounds since starting at the firm two and a half years ago. I am 20 pounds less than I was in high school... I don’t know how to get control again. Even when the stress lays off I can’t eat more due to being used to being busy for almost 9 months out of the year...

I think living a frugal life and aiming to retire early makes a lot of sense.

Recently, some of my family members are diagnosed with a rare diseases. When you look at the statistics, these are so many of these ‘rare’ conditions and cumulatively they are not rare.

These family members conditions made me reevaluate how I want to spend my life. I am 35 this year and I can’t decide if I should take great vacations with my kids or keep living a frugal life. Do you have the same dilemma?

Now I'm terrified that I should have put ALL my meds, to including my psych meds. I've been sober over 12 years and never touched drugs (just booze) but I'm having a full blown panic attack.
