Label Reading

Yesterday I decided to google no sugar and found this blog. I read around and found that you are supposed to take the amount of carbs in a product minus the fiber and that is your true amount of carbs! HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS??? That said I went to my kitchen and started investigating...


Item number one-

 
Total carbs 23 grams, fiber less then one



Total carbs 18 grams, fiber 1

 Oats - Old Fashioned 100% Whole Grain

Total carbs 27, fiber 4

So even though this all is "good" food it is also very high in carbs. That said starting tomorrow I will be taking these out of my diet and really focusing on true healthy foods. Less carbs and sugars more vegetables and meats.
