Help! App not calculating carbs correctly

I've sometimes found that when a food has a significant fibre content, the app doesnt calculate the carbs correctly. I've added several custom foods, but found this issue.

  For example:

Total carbs 13 and fibre 23.  Surely this would leave net carbs as 0 or even -10.  The app is now saying 36g total carbs though, even though I'd just put in only 13, it seems to be ADDING the fibre, rather than subtracting it!

Anyone know why this is happening?  Is there a max fibre to carb ratio that the app accepts? I've tried editing it several ways, yet nothing helps. Help needed.

  • I’m having a similar issue. I entered a recipe in which the net carb count should have been 3.8 and CM calculated it at over 13 net carbs. I manually counted the carbs and I checked it with other diets apps and All came up with about the same net carb count as I did. Very aggravating even MFP did a better job.
