    cutting and meals

    hey guys i have a question regarding cutting. so iv been on a diet for the last 11 weeks this is my 12th week now. iv lost till now 9.5 kg(20.9 pounds). physique is looking much better however i realized i am behind schedule in my appearance because of the cheat days i was having.
    anyway my question is right now my highest carb day in the week is 122.5 g of carbs a day wea i consume 50 grams of carbs in my pwo shake and then a carb containing meal roughly 60 g as well. as the week goes on i drop my carbs so the meals pwo become 50 and 40 g. i also have one refeed meal a week.
    my question is in terms of fat loss would it be more ideal to have my carb meal pre workout and have my pwo shake with fast digesting carbs or should i keep it how its is which is my shake with glucose and then approx and hour and half later a carb meal thank you.

    Meal timing and fat loss have about zero correlation. If you on a 24h (for me weekly) basis hit your macros you are good to go. I would think your cheat meal have more to do with this than anything else. Also, if you are around 100g of carbs you are right above ketosis and it would seem re-feeding on carbs is not necessary. If you are trying to do low-carb move carbs to between 60g-80g/day with one re-feed/week.

    Thanks
