    Carb counting bread, is it ok?

    I'm trying to lose weight, and I found this new carb counting bread by Arnolds. It has an Atkins label on it saying Net carbs of 6g. Is this a good idea to eat on my diet. I've been doing so a slice here and there.

    The contents contain
    Total Fat 1.5g
    Cholesterol 0mg
    Sodium 135mg
    Total Carbohydrate 9g
    Dietary Fiber 3g
    Sugars 0g
    Protein 5g

    Does Fibers subtract from Carbs making the Net carb 6g??

    Net would be 6 yup. Be warned that some of these labels are not accurate, and if you are falling short on your dietary goals, you may wish to take these out until you reach your goals.

    Ditto, I actually found that I do better totally eliminating even these breads.

    Whole grain bread is okay here and there but be extra leary of the carb counting breads like Swole said. Better carb choices exist. Good luck,

    Usual

    Be warned, that stuff tastes like a sponge! I use it sometimes. It has about zero taste. Good for counting carbs though.
