Hi Lisa & Welcome. Nice people and plenty of info to be found here.

To determine carbs subtract fiber from the total carbs. You can also subtract artificial sweeteners.

I do not follow the above quote. In fact, the ADA recommends subtracting the fiber from the total carbohydrate count ONLY if it has 5g or MORE. Artificial sweeteners raise my blood sugar as well.
Test often, keep a log of what you're eating so you'll know which foods you do well with and which foods you need to cut back on or avoid altogether, limit your carbohydrate intake and keep up the exercising (walking).
