I have started the keto diet. I’m confused about how many carbs I needs a day.

Hi there BamaK-
Welcome to MyNetDiary!

You can customize your carbohydrate target by setting a percent carb (usually 5-10% of calories for KETO), or by setting a carb gram goal.

Many Keto plans allow for 20-30 grams of "net carb" per day to begin.

Net carb is total carb minus fiber. For example, 12 almonds have about three grams of total carb and two grams of fiber. Subtract two grams of fiber from three grams of total carb to get one gram of net carb.

Tracking net carb will allow you to include more healthy vegetables, nuts, and seeds in your plan.
Simply chose the Keto Premium diet plan in MyNetDiary for easy tracking of Net Carbs. You may find these articles helpful:
