| I always subtract out fiber (and I subtract 1/2 the sugar alcohols).
tanya, I understand what you are saying... if the fiber is such a small percentage you don't worry about it. and depending on what your ratio is for time of day, that percentage is different. I think the same way for snacks. If it's the morning, when my ratio is 1:45, I don't let 5 or 10 carbs bother me as a snack. but if that same snack was at dinner time, that would be half a unit, so i would dose for it.
