&gt; Also, 5% carbs? How are you getting any nutrition in, since fruit and vegetables are almost all carbs?<p>Vegetables are often relatively high in carbs but low in total calories, and so the contribution of their carbs to your total calories can be low even if you have a lot of vegetables in your diet.<p>For instance, I recently had a steak and corn for dinner. The corn was 80 calories per serving, 15 g of carb, so 75% of calories from carbs. The steak was 600 calories, 3 g of carb (from the steak sauce I used, not the steak itself), with is 2% calories from carbs. I had two servings of corn with my steak, so the total meal was 760 calories, 33 g carbs, which is 17% calories from carbs.<p>If I had not chosen corn I probably would have chosen a can of green beans (70 calories, 7 g of carbs, which is 40% calories from carbs) which would have made the total meal 6% calories from carbs. Heck, double the green beans...two full 14.5 oz cans (almost a kilogram of green beans!), and the total for the meal would only rise to 9% calories from carbs.<p>Or consider salads. I use a pre-made salad mix [1] (I&#x27;m lazy). One bowl of this is 20 calories, 3 g carbs. That&#x27;s 60% of calories from carbs. I use a dressing on this that is 240 calories, 4 g of carbs, so 7% calories from carbs. The salad mix combined with the dressing gives me 26 calories, 7 g carbs, so 11% calories from carbs. Recently I add some chopped up ham to this that added 200 calories, 0 g carbs, making the total salad 6% calories from carbs.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freshexpress.com&#x2F;product&#x2F;refreshing-mixes&#x2F;iceberg-garden.aspx" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freshexpress.com&#x2F;product&#x2F;refreshing-mixes&#x2F;iceberg...</a>  and yes, the nutrition values I gave above do not match what they give on the site. I&#x27;m going by what is printed on the actual package rather than the web site, although it is a little disturbing that they are different.
