    Numbere, i'm a computer programmer. In my days off training, i work sitted at pc in my office ( i know as you can see ). I think, you looking my pictures, is easy understand why it's recommended do not cycle in that condition..... i should use too much AI, risking hard cholesterol issues... so, there's too much aromatase and this is the cause why even with 100mg of Test prop, my conversion is too much high and even with 0.5mg, i feel very bad.

    I think you misinterpreted my question.

    I didn't want to make you feel bad for not being more active, I needed more info so I could better calculate your tdee.

    IMO your bf is a bit higher, around 25-28%.

    Don't beat yourself up too much, everyone has a period where they let themselves get out of shape.

    The important thing is that your're motivated to make a lifestyle change.

    Depending on how many days and how hard you train I think your tdee is about 2,000-2,300 calories.

    So if we assume you maintenance is 2,100 calories and you want to cut at 1,600 calories some macro splits are below:

    Low carb 40p/40f/20c - 164g p/73g f/82g c

    Moderate carb 30p/35f/35c - 123g p/64g f/143g c

    High carb 30p/20f/50c - 123g p/36g f/205g c

    Any of these macro splits are a good place to start. Pick one divide the spit by the number of meals you want to eat and then design your individual meals. Stick with it for 10-14 days and monitor you progress. If you're loosing weight too fast the we need to bump up your tdee, and the opposite if your still maintaining.

    The only other suggestion I have as far as diet is a keto where only about 5% of your intake is from carbs, making your body burn fat for energy. This is a very successful technique for losing fat and maintaining muscle tissue, but it can be difficult to follow because one meal can take you out of ketosis and you will lose a whole week of fat loss. If your interested in something like this let me know and I can provide some more info.
