Hi everyone. It's been a while since I've posted on here and, when I did, it was usually ME critiquing other's diets lol! Anyway, I would like some advice on where I'm going wrong, if at all, on my diet/cardio plan. I seem to have stalled on my cutting phase.

I just finished an 18-month bulking phase 3 weeks ago. During that time, I managed to go from 164lbs. to 196lbs. (about a 32 pound gain). I did put on a bit of fat while running a 4,000 calorie diet during that time. My goal is to get down to single digits within the next 13 weeks. Btw, my stats are: 5'8", 190lbs (after I lost the water weight after the first week of cutting), 14%bf, 29 years old.

So, I weighed in and took all measurements (chest, arms, waist, shoulders, legs) before I started my cut, then one week into the cut, and again yesterday. I lost 6 pounds in the first week (water weight), but these past 2 weeks I have stayed the exact same (same measurements as 2 weeks ago also).

Here is my diet:

Meal 1 (9:30am)
65g whey P-49, C-4, F-1.4
100g oats P-12, C-52, F-9
1 tbsp natty PB P-4.5, C-2.5, F-7

Meal 2 (1:00pm)
8oz. chicken breast P-48, C-0, F-2
1tbsp EVOO P-0, C-0, F-14

Meal 3 (5:00pm)
8 oz. chicken breast P-48, C-0, F-2
100g rice P-7.6, C-78, F-1.5

Meal 4 (pwo) (8:30PM)
65g whey P-49, C-4, F-1.4
100g oats P-12, C-52, F-9
1 tbsp natty PB P-4.5, C-2.5, F-7

Meal 5 (10:30PM)
8 oz. chicken breast P-48, C-0, F-2
1 tbsp EVOO P-0, C-0, F-14

I train weights at 6:30 for about 45 minutes, then off to do cardio for 45 minutes afterwards (I would like to do cardio in the morning, but my schedule does not allow it). My cardio consists of 45 minutes on the treadmill at low-intensity (5mph). I feel like I'm getting a great cardio workout in, as I always need to peel my shirt off and ring out the sweat that drips to the ground by the gallon before I get in my car and drive home lol.

I am also cycling clen at 80mcg/day; 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off.
On my 2 weeks off of clen, I am running 2 weeks of a product called f*ck off fat. It is a product mainly found in South Africa for those who are unfamiliar with it. Its main fat-burning component is Yohimbe, and it has excellent reviews from both online sources as well as people I know who have run it.

I would imagine that some of you may feel my calories are too high. I am basically just trying to eat at a maintenance level (which I calculated by taking my lean body mass x 15), and using training/cardio to create the deficit, as I am not prepared to sacrifice ANY of my hard-earned muscle by eating too little.

So, any advice on anything you think I should change up? Or am I being too impatient since I've only been dieting for 3 weeks? All thoughts are welcome!

If I left anything out, and you need more info, please feel free to ask.

Thank you.
