    Perfect calorie def and still packing on fat?? Help please.

    Hey whats up guys I just have some quick diet questions that I hope I can have answered. I started test prop 100 eod and 50mg var a week ago. Since being on it I have put on about 7 pounds I weighed 181 starting now 188 but my question is my calorie intake is 2300 to 2500 calories and I'm extremely active I work on the beach all day and I personal train at night. I do atleast 30 mins of HITT cardio each day but since starting this cycle I feel like I
    Either holding onto a lot of fat or is this just a lot of beginning water retention? The whole point of this was to lower body fat and lose minimum muscle during the process but it seems as of I'm just bulking like crazy lol also my carb intake is low at most 1 gram per lb because I find used being carb sensitive but my protein is 2 or more per body bound and fat is 50 to 60 grams a day. I eat very clean but I seem to keep gaining more and more weight by the day. Any input would be greatly appreciated

    Macros
    300+ protein
    150 to 200 carbs
    45 to 60 fats

    Real cardio is always ATLEST 30 mins hitting 5 miles a day with HITT

    while cutting id drop all mentioned above and replace carbs with oats, brn rice, sweet potato.. at 12% id be considering a carb cycle diet.. or at least run carbs 100-150g personally.. keeping carbs at or below 20% total cals aids in fat mobilization and oxidation.. higher than that can inhibit it..especially with the items ur eating consisting of sugar.. my .02

    You could lose the bread and the jelly. And post up macro's for each meal.
