cutting carbs during pct

[patrick1]

just started my pct after first cycle of test cyp (400g for 11 wks)
put on 18lbs total
felt a bit smooth though at the end
so i cut down on my carbs during the 18 days prior to pct (which started yesterday)
is this a bad move and should i wait till after pct to try and lose the smoothness.
diet during 11 wk cycle;
protein 350g
carbs 550 (Now 350)
fat 100
all approx and calories 4000 - 4500
eat very healthy all the time
lost 2lbs during this 18 days but thats all
thanks for help
age 47
weight 192 up from 176
height 5`11"
training 20 years on and off last 3 non stop.

i would be careful how much i cut during pct, this is the time when you are trying to keep your body from losing muscle, so i would keep the carbs and protein high till the end, but thats JMO

so you think i should up the carbs back to 550
should i have expected to have lost more weight by now after my cycle
or does that kick in more, later during pct

yeah i would, even though that's a lot of calories, any fat you gain you can cut after pct

as far as when you lost weight, that depends on the individual
