Low-carb congrats to you
ljk 
I don't count calories. But I don't have appetite and this helps me to do a natural caloric restriction.
I have
bad experience with post workout carb-loads. In 2005 Galya tested some JB voodoo

on me ... a lot of pain and malfunction I felt in my muscles. I never beleived in carb-loads and my bad experience is a proof.
A carb day every week is a weak conception for candy lovers.
I don't plan meals. I'm constant in my nutrition.
Rules:
- eat enough animal fat (beacon, butter, cream, lard)
- eat enough animal protein (meat, eggs, cheese (calcium!),
liver (vit-A!))
- cod liver oil (3-5 grams daily)
- drink water (0.8 us gallons = 3 liters daily)
- greens for fun
- max 12h between two meals (generally dinner->breakfast)
/there is another conception for anvanced low-carbers: 1.eat less or nothing and feel hunger in the morning and at noon 2. eat as much as you can between 2pm and 10pm (8h zone). I use this conception last 9 months./
lean meat + fat = balance
/good/
excess of lean meat = lean meat + sugar
/bad/
Do more right things, do less plans!
Do more right things, do less voodoo in vain!
Train heavy with compound movements.
