This extension replaces the sodium column in FitBit's food logger with net carbs for ketogenic and low carb dieters
FitBit.com doesn't display net carbs in the Logged Food section of their website. Keto dieters (i.e., people on a ketogenic diet) and low carb enthusiasts in general prefer to see the net carb amount (i.e., Total Carbohydrates - Fiber) instead of the total amount of carbs.
This extension replaces the Sodium column with Net Carbs in the Log Food page on the FitBit.com site.
Limitations: This initial version does not display net carbs in the Premium food report section. It's a limitation I'd like to fix in the future.

Credit: This extension was heavily inspired by, and simply adapted from, FitBitPS by DRye. That extension is pretty useful if you are on diets such as Weight Watchers.

- (2017-04-26) techoverwhelm: Really wanted it to work. However, it causes the food log with fitbit.com to freeze up and quit working. Can't even add food to log as it is frozen when using the fitbit keto app.
- (2017-04-14) Bunny: I love the concept but when you go onto the webpage via computer to fitbit: Log it freezes//crashes. Please try and fix this! It makes me life so much easier. As of 04/14/17: it is broken and not working well. I have tested this over several days. I have to remove the extension and re-add it and remove it again to track my net carbs which is very important for my Keto diet.

- (2015-06-06) David R. Harrison: I've only been using a FitBit for a week now. Fantastic add-on. Thanks for fixing one of my pet peeves in the FitBit application. The fact that the FitBit app shows carbs and fiber but does not do the simple calc to show net carbs has irked me. I would like the option to deduct the sugar alcohols too (as another review mentioned) but I don't know if the sugar alcohols are available in the food database so this may not be possible.

- (2015-02-02) Meredith Moss: Fantastic! Works seamlessly.

- (2015-01-17) Carol Reardon: Can't find it
- (2015-01-09) Kutibh - Kootayba Chihabi: It works like I want it to but is there a way you can make it also deduct sugar alcohols, or maybe make this an option for those of us who want to deduct those?
- (2014-12-27) Sam Smith: Still not able to find it after I downloaded it. Chrome operating system is not that user friendly
- (2014-06-19) Just installed it and doesn't seem to be working - Fit Bit still showing Sodium **Update - fixed now, thanks!
