How to stay under 30 total carbs

Hey carb conscious folks,

I'm so glad to join your community. Reading through the forums has been very enlightening. Just started following the Keto diet and am having a tough time keeping total carbs under 30. I am able to limit my net carbs to around 30.

I am 5'9" tall and weigh about 178. Since I started the diet I have lost a few pounds. I am hoping to get back to my ideal weight of 160.

Thanks for your advice and support!
