Ok, so the carbs are just for providing the energy for the upcoming week's workouts, correct? Thus if you aren't planning to workout, you don't need the carbs.
I thought they are also needed, though, to boost back up your glycogen and insulin levels so your body burns fat for energy and not protein (so you lose as little muscle as possible).
ie. on a typical no-carb diet, I imagine one would lose tons of muscle with the weight they lose, not just fat.
Either way, I intend to start at least some lifting...right now my exercise is more of a cardio-only nature (hockey) - but I understand I need to build more muscle for all this to achieve desired results.
Perhaps if I'm not a hardcore workout person, though, I wouldn't require exact amounts of carbs on that one day and it would be easier to just follow this:
6 days a week, no-carb
1 day a week, whatever I feel like eating
??
