I count net carbs and have had great success. I am normally around 20 to 25 per day and have been for the three months I've been eating this way. BUT, like Thud, I don't eat anything that's packaged. My carbs are coming primarily from vegetables and that's where Dr. Atkins intended them to come from (at least at the beginning). Even in later stages when you begin to add some higher carb foods back (if you do), the intent is to stick with natural foods (cheese, nuts, etc.), not packaged junk.
