Robin, I do the 'free day' now, at C5 and 6, but during the first 4 I did them as "general LC days" w/o any accountability for protein requirements being met and eating on a schedule. I wasn't interested in carbs or in the possible 'bloat' that they would result in. Free meals for me now tend to be isocaloric, 33/33/34 and the goal is to have a day with higher calories as my BFL regular days tend to be lower than I'd like.

We're heading to the Mayan Riviera - in 13 days! There are pictures of the resort in the link on the left hand margin of my web page

Cheers, Toots
