Stevia has carbs?
I’m on day 3, very upset about my morning espresso with no calorie stevia packets. I just read on one of the chats that you have to count those packets. I’ve been counting the carbs in my espresso, not the stevia. I just added my 4 packs of stevia and was shocked the stevia put me over my net carbs. I only get 16 grams of carbs total. Geeeeeezzz! How do I get around this.? I have to have a sweetener in my coffee.

Bobbi You'd have to check labels. I have Truvia in a 280g plastic jar green label. It says zero net carbs, but it appears to be a blend of stevia and Erythritol. It seems all the zero net carb non caloric sweeteners have 3-4 carbs per tsp that are not fiber nor sugar, it's a mystery what they are. So they drive up my total carbs but have no impact on my net carbs. Net carbs is my main concern but it's still annoying, lol.
