Maybe they are mislabeled?
Have to tried upping the carb content to see if it takes?

It's the sugar-free foods and that kind of thing. Fitday says one of my foods should have 130 calories and it actually has only 35....that kind of thing.

This brings up an interesting point, NOT at all directed at you SG...

The thing about fit day, when it does your percentages, it puts fiber carb in as carbs. Since carbs are basically either energy or fiber, and "non-impact carbs" are labeled as carbs that you can’t metabolize or use "so they don’t count", Fit day COUNTS them when they show the pie chart ... including the carbs that don't belong there so to speak.

If you are one who 'doesn't count' those carbs, you macros will be off, but it's close enough when it comes to simply tracking what's going into a persons mouth.

I subtract fiber and sugar alcohols from the carb count. But even when I tried to add them back in....still didn't work.

OK, Fitday has me totally ticked off! I have two foods that I can't put in correctly because the program is retarded and won't let me enter the correct numbers. Can someone help me calculate my macros from the correct numbers? I'm a dipshit and suck at math!
