You ate 79g carbs. But only 45g of them can be utilized by the body.

WHY are you eating so low carb if you are trying to build muscle? You MUST eat more to gain muscle.

thanks

so if I good understand fiber I need not count as carbs?

No, it does not count because it can't be digested. But from problems in your other posts, you need plenty of fiber anyway so make sure you are eating plenty of fiber-rich foods.
