FitBitKeto Extension

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.

Jacob Pakula (ID: 000000fe96e60f1d) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/27/2020 It's a great idea. Unfortunately, it's causing the fitbit page to crash. I need to add or edit without the extension and then turn it on to see the net carbs.
