Sounds fine. Also your nutritionist knows BS about cutting carbs and losing muscle.

why is that?

Long story short. Because if you're cutting energy from carbs your body isn't going to go straight for your muscle for energy. You should still be getting your protein for amino acids and hopefully good fats. You're trying to make your body use your stored fat for energy. It would rather use stored fat over your muscle if you are a) getting enough protein and b) working out your muscle.

Ok thanks, so do you think I should still be using the protein then or will that just give me unwanted calories?
